Silicon Valley Relocation Guide
Moving can be stressful or high excitement. Usually it is a combination
of the two. Moving to Silicon Valley will be more stressful than moving
elsewhere because of the home prices. It is one of the most expensive
places to live in the country. If you have been offered a job here, talk
to the company about relocation assistance and housing subsidies or
low-interest loans. Many companies have such programs.
This guide consists of a series of articles we hope will reduce the
stress and turmoil of moving to a new city. Each article is on a
separate page in a printer-friendly format.
First, establish a timetable.
There are a myriad of tasks to accomplish in making a successful move.
This timetable will assist you in making sure everything gets done.
Second, hire a moving company.
Depending upon the time of year, this chore can become a nightmare. Do
this early because there are only a limited amount of moving trucks and
you don't want to be stuck with a local fly-by-night company. They are
out there.
Next, do your homework. Advance knowledge of your new community goes
a long way towards relieving the anxiety of the move. This site is
set-up to assist you in finding out fundamental statistics about the
community. As your agent, I can give you the little details about
Scottsdale that will make the difference in your purchase of the right
home, and neighborhood.
