A few occasions on which you might be moving into a new house
Here are a few occasions that might require you to move into a new home:
- You had a great idea for a home remodel, and had hired interior designers to completely remodel your home.
- You want to settle down.
- You’ve dreamed about owning a home for a while; now you’ve managed to get the finances in order.
Whatever it be, we can offer advice to make the moving process easier!
Features of a good house moving process
A good moving process will…
- Enable you to start living in your new home as quickly as possible.
- Not leave a lot of issues for you to worry about (like we also do in our interior design process).
- Ensure you don’t leave behind a lot of the things (possessions, furniture etc) that you want to take over.
All that being said, let’s take a look at Imagine Interior’s list of five house moving tips to help you move.
Walk through your new home
Do a walk through of your new home before you start moving.
Check to see:
- All features and repairs (if necessary) have been made.
- We include site visits as part of our interior design process to help you get this done.
- Everything agreed upon in the sale/remodel contract is actually included.
- Things like electrical outlets, taps, water supply etc (utilities) are working fine.
Checking this pre-move can save you a lot of problems later on.
Handle basic processes
Some basic processes like ensuring you are registered at your local post office, cancelling utilities and other services at your old home, need to be attended to.
Make a list of these and get them done.
Understand the process
Take a few moments to study the moving process itself – what will happen when, what comes after what, and which things need your attention.
This might seem trivial, but setting time aside to do it will enable you to focus on those issues that really need your attention.
Choosing possessions
Do a careful selection of your possessions.
Decide which ones you want to keep in your new home.
And sell the rest.

Deep clean your new home
A deep clean of your new home can ensure safety and hygiene, especially in this age of COVID-19.
You can consider hiring professional home cleaners for this initial cleanse.
