Is there a house move on the cards once you retire? If so, you probably already know that, whether you're moving yourself or getting a moving company to do it for you, preparation is everything! Now you can take some of the stress out of that preparation by using the 15 checklists in our On the Move! pack.
Here's what you'll find inside:
PREPARING FOR A MOVE - This is the perfect place to set up a timetable for your big move! List everything that needs to be done and when it needs to be done by.
MOVING COMPANY CHECKLIST - This contains all the steps that you should take to prepare yourself for a move using a moving company.
MOVE YOURSELF CHECKLIST - This contains all the steps that you should take to prepare yourself for a do-it-yourself move.
IMPORTANT CONTACTS DURING A MOVE - Keep your estate agent/realtor’s numbers, bank’s information, and everyone else that is vital to a smooth move all here on this page!
HOUSE HUNTING COMPARISON - If you're going to invest in something as huge as a house, then you need to keep track of all of the important information. Once you’ve looked at 12 houses, they all start looking the same in your memory. Don’t waste time revisiting every house. Take good notes and then you’ll be more prepared to make an informed decision.
APARTMENT HUNTING COMPARISON – Options are a positive thing, unless you can’t seem to keep track. By taking notes as you hunt for a place to live, you’ll save time (no revisiting each apartment because you can’t remember what they looked like) & money (you’ll be able to compare rent/deposit for each apartment) when it's time to make your decision.
MOVING COMPANY COMPARISON - Whether you're looking for a self-drive moving van or truck or a team of movers to do the whole thing for you, you'll want to do some price and service comparisons. This is the place to record them all.
UTILITIES / ACCOUNTS TO CLOSE - Trying to remember each and every company you have to contact in order to cancel or close your accounts is a difficult task. This list is designed to jog your memory and help you keep track of what you’ve accomplished.
UTILITIES / ACCOUNTS TO OPEN - Trying to remember each and every company you have to contact in order to keep everything running smoothly can be a recipe for disaster. This list is designed to jog your memory and help you keep track of what you’ve accomplished.
CHANGE OF ADDRESS LIST - Would you like to remain on your church’s mailing list? How about re-routing your magazines? Banks and credit cards will definitely need to know about your change of address. Keep track of who you need to inform on this list..
CHANGE OF ADDRESS CARDS TO SEND - Use these pages to create your mailing list and keep track of who you sent out your change of address cards to.
PLACES TO REGISTER - Once you are settled in your new home, there are many places that will need your information and your new address. Use this list to get yourself in gear!
BOX CONTENTS – Print this page for every box and keep track of every single item, where it comes from and where it is going. (Especially useful if, like me, two years after your move, you still have unopened boxes in your garage and you haven't a clue what's in them!)
INVENTORY OF BOXES – This page is an overview of the contents of each box and a checklist for keeping track of them all.
BOX LABELS – Print this sheet a few times onto adhesive-backed paper (available from Amazon) (or just print onto plain A4 and use clear tape). Then simply number the boxes, list general contents, cut on the lines, and place on your boxes.
PLUS
I've included an exercise from our 'Get the Retirement You Deserve' Home Study Course':
WHERE DO YOU WANT TO LIVE? - Where and how you live in retirement is, often, crucial in your quest to achieve the kind of retirement you want and deserve to have. If you're contemplating a house move, this exercise provides you some things you need to consider.
All these forms and checklists will be delivered in immediately downloadable PDF format.
