Not sure if you have already thought about all the "start up" costs as they aren't monthly costs (unless you take advantage of the "free financing for X amount of time deals). On our new home we have had the following (so far):
Blinds
landscaping
sprinkler head "donuts"
Lanai furniture
interior painting
attic stairs in the garage
cabinet knobs
cabinet pullouts
ceiling fans
washer/dryer
storage racks (for garage)
golf cart
