Did you know that for most people, moving ranks near the top of the list of stressful events? Here are some things you can do to minimize stress when you are ready to make a move:
.
• Choose a real estate agent who communicates clearly and frequently, keeping you up to speed on every
step of the process.
.
• Consider how long it will take from the time you make an offer on a property until the transaction closes. Once an offer is received and accepted, it may take from 30 to 45 days to obtain financing. Being preapproved for a loan can shorten that time frame considerably.
• Decide whether you want to move yourself or have professional movers handle the job. If you hire a moving company, be sure to book well in advance.
.
• Think about cleaning services. After everything is packed and moved is a great time to have someone come in and clean.
.
• Arrange at least two weeks in advance to have utilities and phone service disconnected at your old house and reconnected in your new home on move-in day.
