Just moved in? Now what? Planning and preparing for a house move can take up a large portion of your spare time , energy and focus. But once the moving process is over and you’re in your new home it can feel a little daunting. There are most likely things you want or need to change, but it can be difficult to know exactly where to begin.Some tasks will need to be done right away whereas others can be done further along the line.You might need to save up for some home projects but a lot of decorating jobs can be done cheaply and quickly. To help you prioritize and plan which ones to tackle first, use the following tips on organizing your home.
Moving Home Checklist # 1
Assess Your House
To begin with, you need to assess the condition of each room in your new home , and it’s exterior. This can be an eye-opening activity that highlights what needs to be done. Whether it’s large repairs or minor cosmetic changes, create a list of every task that needs doing.
Also, consider which tasks you can complete yourself and which ones will require a professional assistant. While it’s good to try out new things, be realistic about your skill set. By the end of your walk through you should have a better understanding of what needs to be accomplished. It will also show you that some rooms might require more care and attention than others.
Moving Home Checklist # 2
Your Budget
Next, you need to consider your budget. It’s no secret that buying a house is an expensive business. So before you decide which tasks to tackle first, you need to know whether you can afford to. Check your financial records and factor in mortgage repayments and bills you need to pay.
Use this information to create your budget for the tasks and projects you want to complete. You may find that you can’t afford a complete home renovation yet and that you may only be able to do minor changes right now. This can be disheartening but is one of the best ways of planning your approach.
Moving Home Checklist # 3
Time Plan
Now you know what your budget is and what needs to be completed you need to create a time plan.
Refer to your list and choose a few items that need to be done straight away that you can afford to complete. Then consider how much time you need to get them done. If it’s a task like installing aluminium front doors or replacing a faucet, this shouldn’t take long.
While large house painting jobs and renovations can take days or even weeks to complete. Refer to your time plan to make sure you have sufficient time before you begin. Otherwise, these projects may need to be put on hold until you have more time in the future. If you’ve only got limited time, it might be beneficial to choose smaller and less time-consuming tasks first.
A new house is a fantastic blank canvas where you can showcase your personal style and personality. While you might want to get things started as soon as possible, give yourself some time to reenergize after your move. This will help you stay enthusiastic and motivated to complete your priority tasks !

Thanks a lot for reading !
I can related so well to all the points that you have mentioned here. Just recently, I shifted house. So, I had done the same things that you wrote about. I particularly take keen interest in knowing that the plumbing systems are ok or not.
