Getting Settled In Your New Home and Community

Step 5: Settle Into Your New Home

Now it is time to settle in! Don't forget to check in with your local Real Estate Professional - he or she may be able to provide useful local advice, and/or referrals through their local connections.

In addition to unpacking, these "to-dos" will help you get up to speed.

Contact utility companies and verify start dates.

Let the local post office know that you have arrived.
 
Create an emergency phone list for your new community and post on the refrigerator.
 
Change batteries in smoke detectors and plan a fire escape route.
 
Send a thank you note to neighbors, friends and family that assisted with the move.
 
Consider changing the house locks.
 
Register to vote.
