Property Sold: Checklist Of Tasks Before Moving Into A New Home

Assuming you've just bought a new home and are ready to move in - now what?

Well, there are several small tasks that need to be checked off: turning on electricity/water/gas, arranging for an alarm company, cleaning or replacing the carpet (it is much easier to do this without furniture in place), and notifying your local post office (and friends) of your new address. Renovations are often best done before you move in.
