Moving house can be a long and tiring process, especially if you are moving long distance. When you have children, as well as a job, you may feel like you are being stretched in too many different directions. This is why it can be useful to think about how best to simplify your move. Not only can this allow you to gain back some of your time, but it may also reduce the likelihood of you feeling burned out.

Choose the right broker.

When you use a broker, this should make things easier for you. As a real estate broker Compass may understand the need for you to find a home that’s right for you. Due to this, they may be able to take any specifications you give and use them to send you homes or apartments most likely to meet your requirements. If you’re also selling your home, they may be able to help you increase your home’s value, and even do some redesign work to contribute towards this. Doing a lot of the communication online can also mean that you don’t need to factor a trip to the real estate office into an already-packed day.

Pack ahead of time.

Leaving all of your packing until the day you move can see you feeling excessively stressed and might even result in you not being out of the house on time. To prevent this, you may want to start packing as soon as you have signed up to purchase a new home. One of the helpful tools here can be that, rather than packing everything that currently resides in the place, you also use this as a time to declutter.

This way, you may find yourself needing to pack significantly less. When using a moving company, decluttering prior to receiving a quote may also bring down the amount you need to pay. If you plan on moving overseas, a lower weight of items could greatly impact the budget you require. Should you need to move out of your existing home before your next is ready, being nearly packed could also allow you to easily transport your items to a storage facility during that interim.

Think about your children.

Moving with kids can be difficult, especially if they have mixed emotions. Moving your furniture with them underfoot can make the process even trickier. You may want to see if a friend or family member could look after them if it’s feasible to do so. If not, you may want to give some thought to how to occupy them while you load and unload items. Leaving one room until last so that they can play games, and then making that the first room you unpack at the other end, could allow you to get on with the task while keeping them safe.
