Tips For Moving

Selling your home and moving to a new one has unique challenges. This collection of tips will help get you off on the right foot.

Tips for Your Move

Whether you have moved once or a dozen times, it never seems to get any easier. Here are some hints that we hope you will find helpful as you prepare for moving day.

  • Make agreements with buyers about possession of the home and moving date.
  • Start planning early. From the moment you decide to put your home up for sale, start sorting through your current possessions. Toss (or give away, sell at a yard sale or online) anything that you don’t want to take with you.
  • Make a list of important items you will need to buy for your new house, such as drapes, blinds, shower curtains, etc. Having these things with you on the day you move helps you settle in more comfortably.

Start packing early. Anything that you are sure you will not be using before moving day should get boxed.

TIP: Organize like items together and mark every box and carton. This makes it easier if you find you need an item before you move, and much simpler after you move. Unpacking tends to be a gradual process–this simple step will help you find the items you need when you need them.

Sellers’ Testimonials

I received my property closing statement and wanted to thank Armando Gonzalez for being continually proactive. The mailings, magazines and various communications are all ongoing positive proof of your continued support after the sale. Not only is it appreciated, but sets a standard I expect from all my professional relationships. No wonder you are successful as you are, and you can be assured I will recommend you any change I get!

My sister inherited a house in Pico Rivera. Chuck Chavez was recommended by a friend. He listed and sold the house right away but we had a problem with the tenant. However, the tenant decided to stay rent free for over 8 months. All this time, Chuck Chavez had to deal with the tenant, the seller, the buyer, the attorney and the courts. The house is a small house and not really worth a lot of money, so he wasn’t going to get a lot out of this sale. But he worked hard, kept both my sister and I informed throughout the ordeal, and made sure everything was done according to the laws of the State so we would not have any more problems after the sale was complete. I am happy to recommend Chuck Chavez for all those qualities listed above, and because he delivers his services in a very professional manner.

Chuck Chavez was very professional and polite when it came to our needs as a first home buyers. We were referred to him through a friend and were pleased as how fast he took action in showing us homes in our budget. Now that we have purchased our first home, we will refer him to anyone who is interested in buying. After going through five realtors in 2years, Mr. Chavez accomplished in two months what they couldn’t do in 2 two years. He will be are realtor for life!
