Congratulations!

My experience is that, with a new house, things will pop up but as long as the plumbing and electrical are good, no crises should arise.

I would make sure that you are prepared to check all the outlets to make sure that they are wired correctly (including the ground wire) since that is a common problem. Also, it is likely that your pipes are PVC, so have some PVC cleaner and cement on hand in case of a leak.

If possible, make a list of which outlets are on which breaker and which GFI reset is for that circuit. Simple testers at home depot and the like.

My one word of advice to all new home owners is this:

Buy a programmable light timer and use it on a light in your front room. Also get a replacement for the outside light switch that is a timer that automatically adjusts for daylight savings time. Mine knows how to come on at dusk on off some time around midnight which is when the inside timer goes out. Makes the house looked lived in even when you are not home.
