If you purchase a brand new house, you will likely not have any major maintenance expenses for a couple years. However, for previously owned homes, the annual average for repairs and maintenance (painting, driveway resealing, etc.) is estimated to be from 2% to 4% of the value of the home per year, depending on how old the home is. Zillow estimates homeowners can spend over $9,000 a year on average.
