Contract with a reputable moving company.
Arrange to have school records transferred.
Arrange to transfer (or take with you) medical, dental and other important records.
Prepare to transfer your homeowners and auto insurance to be sure you will be covered.
Keep track of moving-related expenses. (Check with your accountant to find out what
expenses may be deductible).
Mail change-of-address cards to the post office, subscriptions, credit card companies
and important contacts. Online service is available at www.usps.gov.
Arrange for a final utility reading at your former residence the day after your move AND
have the utilities and phone turned on at your new home the day before you move in.
Terminate newspaper delivery service.
Arrange the transfer of vehicle licenses and driver licenses.
We will schedule a final walk-through of the property to make sure everything is in order.
Keep financial records and personal papers with you, do not pack them.
On closing day, once the home purchase documents are completed and the seller is in
receipt of funding - the keys will be yours!
MOVE IN & ENJOY YOUR NEW HOME!
