You’ve completed the buying process, you’ve survived your closing (possibly with a sore wrist), and you’ve gotten the keys to your new home. After you celebrate, it’s time to start the real journey—life as a new homeowner.
For many, obtaining a mortgage, finding a home, and negotiating a contract aren’t the most stressful parts of the process—moving once you’ve closed is the major stressor. Here’s how to plan your move to make it as headache-free as possible.
An important thing to note is that you should begin planning the moving process before you close. As soon as you know your closing date, you can begin scheduling your move so you’re ready to go as soon as possible.
