Ultimately, being proactive about potential issues can save you from unforeseen complications down the road. With that in mind, if you’re looking at properties or preparing to buy, our team of attorneys would be happy to take a look at the contract and provide insight or advice.

It’s National Moving Month! 📦 Our team knows that moving comes with lots of moving parts and a ton of planning.

That’s why we compiled a quick list of our best moving tips for you. Tag anyone you know in the comments who is about to move!

1️⃣ Start Early & Declutter: Jumpstart your packing early and use this chance to declutter. Donate what you don’t need. Remember, the less you move, the smoother the process!

2️⃣ Label Everything: Take the time to label each box with its contents and the room it's destined for. This might seem like a hassle now, but it’s a lifesaver when unpacking. No more hours wasted searching for things!

3️⃣ Essential Box: Pack an "Open First" box. Include things like toiletries, clothes for a couple of days, your beloved coffee maker, and some snacks. Make sure this is the last box loaded and the first one opened. You’ll thank yourself later!

4️⃣ Notify Important Parties: Don’t forget to update your address with the post office, banks, and others. It’s easy to overlook, but super important. Check out the USPS website for a hassle-free address change.

5️⃣ Take Care of Utilities Early: Set up your utilities before you move in. Trust us, you don’t want to spend your first night without lights or Wi-Fi.

Remember, moving is not just a task; it's the start of an exciting new chapter. Whether you’re in the thick of it or just planning ahead, we are here to make sure your transition is as smooth as silk. Got questions or need help? Just reach out – we are here for you! 🙌
