Moving Into Your New Home



Moving into a new home can be an exhilarating experience. The idea of living in your dream home can be one that captures your imagination. However, the concept of moving from one home to another can also hold its own unique stressors for that needs adequate preparation.

What To Expect Prior To Closing


Obviously it would be impossible to move into a new home without closing on it. Charleston Homes tries to make this somewhat stressful process, and the moments before it, as simple as possible.

First, you will walk through the home one final time with a sales associate to make sure that every detail you need accomplished before you move in is done. By this time, there should be little or no work left to do since Charleston Homes staff have already gone over each detail thoroughly, but the last walk-through helps everyone know that the home is in the exact shape it should be.

This final walk-through process should take no longer than 15 minutes.

What To Expect at Closing

Once you arrive at closing you should be confident that things are in order at your new home and everything is ready for your arrival. In fact at this point, the only thing missing from “Home Sweet Home” is you!
Shortly before you arrive to closing, call your lender to double check the exact amount you are bringing to the table for your down payment.

Once you arrive at closing, bring you personal ID. This will help verify your identity throughout the multitudes of paperwork that closing entails.

In addition, be prepared to receive the keys to your new home. As the old saying goes, “Your destiny awaits!” Holding the keys to your new home is an exciting event. Once everything else is complete in the closing process, the moment you have imagined finally has arrived!

Other “Moving Day” Considerations

Scheduling trash pick-up might not be at the top of your list of exciting things to do when you move into a new home. However, it is something that will certainly be noticed if it is not done.

If you live outside of city services, trash removal is something that must be on your “To Do” list when you move into a new home. In addition, you need to change over any utilities from your current residence. If cable or satellite TV is important to you and your family, consider calling your preference of this provider in advance, as well.

Closing on your new home does not need to be a stressful life event. When you make sure that everything is in order and all of the paper work is signed at closing, it’s important to remember the minute details. Things like transferring the utilities and setting up cable television quickly make a new house turn into a home.
