Buyer Step 21 - Welcome Home: Settling into Your New Home and Community

May 31, 2021

Step 21

Congratulations! It's time to settle in at your new home.

Congratulations on your new home! Now that you've taken this exciting step, it's time to focus on settling into your community. Here are some important considerations:


  • Change of Address: Make sure to update your address with the post office. Notify your bank, credit card companies, friends and relatives, insurance providers, healthcare professionals, schools, and any other relevant organizations about your change of address.
  • Secure Your New Home: Enhance your security by changing the locks on your new home promptly. If there are electronic systems, ask the seller for instruction codes and manuals, and consider reconfiguring them.
  • Update Driver's Licenses and Vehicle Registrations: If you've moved to a new state, remember to update your driver's license and vehicle registrations within the required timeframe (usually within 90 days).
  • Register to Vote: Don't forget to update your voter's registration to reflect your new address.
  • Quality Service Survey and Testimonials: We're committed to providing an exceptional experience. After your sale, we invite you to share your feedback through our Quality Service Survey. Consider leaving a glowing testimonial on platforms like Facebook, Google, or Yelp. Your referrals mean the world to us, and we'll treat them with the utmost care.
  • Continued Support: As you settle in, questions may arise. Remember, we're not just your realtors® for this transaction – we're here for life. Feel free to reach out for any assistance or referrals to professional services. Your comfort and satisfaction are our top priorities.
