Throw back to 4 weeks ago…
A move that we had been planning for for 8 months. In fact we started by supporting the client with a change of estate agent, a lick of paint here and there and a declutter to maximise the property’s selling potential. The new agent were fabulous, investing in stunning photography and a professional marketing strategy, which meant it didn’t take long to find a buyer.
This was time for us to plan the move in detail. We helped to identify what furniture would fit into the new home and where it would be best placed. Furniture that wasn’t required went to auction with giving our client additional funds to cover her move costs. We donated many unwanted items to as well as donating furniture items for free via online recycling sites.
The weeks before the move was used to have new home cards printed, mail redirection set up and change of addresses on accounts and services arranged.
The week before move day was for clearing all outbuildings, double garage, garden and broken furniture from the house.
Move week was about packing, cleaning, more packing and then loading ready to set off (dropping off keys on the way) and collecting new keys before the unpacking started.
Following the move, we were able to help source and purchase items and furniture for the new home, working on the finishing touches so our clients new apartment functions in the best way possible.
As always, It has been a real pleasure supporting our client in their later life move.
