The days leading up to closing can be filled with a whirlwind of emotions and a list a mile long of tasks you need to do. There are a few things, though, that you may be forgetting to add to that post-move to-do list you’ve started. And just in case your REALTOR® forgot to mention them, let us help you out.

Forwarding your mail.

You’ll want to make sure you’ve had your mail set up to forward from your old address to your new address. You can do this for short- or long-term moves, so whether you’ve purchased your forever home or are taking up residence in something more temporary, your mail can follow you. Bonus: With mail forwarding, you are also sent a welcome kit with coupons, many of them perfect for new homeowners - who doesn’t like saving money?
