Are you being relocated to another city for your work? It's an exciting time full of a lot of emotions. There's a lot to be done for work and for your personal life. Read some relocation tips that could help ease the transition period for you:

Make Use of Short Term Rentals

Instead of staying in a hotel while you try to rush and find the perfect home to buy or lease, why not consider a short term rental condo? There are services that will arrange a short term furnished rental for you for your desired length of time that will be close to work and help you ease in. Instead of living out of a suitcase, a short term furnished rental can help you ease into life and work in your new city. Corporate apartments can come with all the comforts you'll need so you can simply ship your household contents when you find a more permanent place or have them put in storage locally. Living this way is much more cost effective, comfortable, and practical than living in a hotel and rushing to find your permanent home.

  • Finding a permanent home
  • Assisting with medical needs, such as finding dentists and family doctors
  • Providing you with city tours, so you can get well acquainted with your new home
  • Assisting with any government requirements, such as if you need a new driver's license or health coverage)
  • Referring veterinary and /or pet boarding services
  • Helping you get everything you need arranged for when you find your new permanent home, including: moving assistance, finding childcare, setting up utilities for your new home, etc.

Moving to a new city can be exciting but overwhelming. It could be well worth the investment of having a relocation service to help you find a short term rental that's furnished and work with you to save time and effort in multiple new areas during your transition period.

Take a Time Out

It's an exciting time in your life. Research as much as you can about your new city through the internet (you'll find many expat forums and communities as well as blogs that educate about moving to various cities or new countries)but try, if you can, to take a week of vacation to get settled  and enjoy and explore your new surroundings as this can help you ease in more comfortably, too.
