First house - when do we contact everyone?

Question

Hi all,

First question on here... fingers crossed!

We're buying our first house and should be moving in in the next month or so (hopefully!!!)

Who do we need to contact (electric company, water, gas, SKY (for BB/TV/phone package)... anyone else?) and when should we do it?

We will have to research the best deals for the utilities, how fast do we need to be and do you need it all to be in place when we move in?

Thanks in advance!!!

Answer 1

you should call the local utility companies in the area of your new home....they will guide you as to how soon you should get things rolling or at least what your options are. The sooner the better .....knowledge is power, the more info you have the better the decision you make. Happy moving!!!

Answer 2

When deal is closed and you have the key before walking through.
