Moving time!
Congratulations, it’s finally yours!
You’ve moved in and are getting settled, but we’re still there for you. The Kelly Domaille Team is a resource for you long after you have purchased your home. We are there to answer questions, give advice or offer our services to any of your friends. Please visit our Homeowners Needs page for many answers to your questions.
Here is a moving-in checklist that you will find helpful when the time comes:
-
Contact your insurance agent to switch or cancel your policies.
-
Send the post office your change of address form. Or you can complete this form online.
-
If you are changing banks, notify the companies with whom you have automatic debit and credit arrangements.
-
Forward your medical records to your new doctors and dentists.
-
Make sure you are licensed and your car is registered within the required time frame. And don't forget to get a parking permit if you need one!
-
Stop or transfer delivery of your newspaper.
-
To avoid long-distance fees you may need to change your Internet dial-up settings.
-
Contact credit card companies and other creditors now and let them know you will be moving.
-
The seller is only obligated to leave the house “broom clean.” So you will need to buy cleaning materials or hire a professional to scrub it.
-
Schedule painting, repairs, or renovations before you move into your new home.
-
A couple of weeks before your move, schedule to end utility service (telephone, water, gas, electricity, trash collection, oil delivery, and security-alarm monitoring) at your current home and start the services in your new one. You can find local utility information in this section.
