 Good recordkeeping
This book makes it easy to keep all your home information in one spot. Measure your windows once, write it down in the book, and you are ready to buy new window treatments any time. Keep track of your purchases and know how much money you have spent on home improvements. Write down paint colors, etc., and you won't have to wonder when you need another quart for a touch up. Put your furnace or AC info in the book and you won't have to climb around trying to read the little numbers on the appliance if you need a repair. We had a previous edition of this book for the home we recently sold, and I made a special point to get this book for the house we just bought. It makes my recordkeeping so much easier and I can find all my information in one place.

Great Gift For Home Buyer's
I buy these and give them to all my home buyer's at closings. It is a great book and you can record virtually everything about your home in it. My home rehabbers love it because they then have something to hand to the new homeowners showing everything they have done to the property and where to find replacements and warranties.

The Home Owner's Journal, Fifth Edition
I bought this when I purchased my first home. It's easy to use and has lots of sections where you can keep notes. It is divided up into a variety of sections like Living Room, Bedroom (1,2,3,4,5), Bathroom, Hallway, Roof, etc. I keep things in it like dates of yearly service calls, paint swatches, companies I've used, etc. It's a terrific tool and also makes a great gift.

 Not what I thought it was. ( kims_used_txtbooks )
This is more of a decorating book if you ask me. It gives you spaces to put what dimension e/thing in your house is. It is not a bad book, but it is not what I thought it was. I was looking for a book to store info on when the last time I cleaned the air ducts in the house, etc...stuff like that. Maybe I am looking more for a maitenence book. This book would be useful in many situations, but as a home journal it's not what i thought it was.

Quick and easy
The hardest part to using this reminder (fill-in the pages book) is taking the time to write down what you did to your house. Be it painting-- the kitchen or replacing the waterheater. The book is user-friendly and the spiral binding allows to to lay flatt to easily write in. Virually all rooms, appliances, etc. are listed on separate pages. Referring back to finding an event is just thumbing thru the pages to the room,etc.
Wall coverings; bedroom 1,2,3; measurements, cleaned by, brand, date purchased, costs,etc. are all things asked of you.
