Step One: Do your research.
Before looking for your dream home and moving to a new suburb, it’s vital to do your research on the Real Estate offices in Melton. Whether it be that you’re buying or renting a property, it’s important to explore individual agents and their agencies so that your experience is as smooth and comfortable as possible. The ‘Meet Our Team’ section on our website is utilised to show some background information on our individual agents and property managers, helping you to decide who will make your experience the most enjoyable. https://www.ryderrealestate.com.au/meet-our-team/
Relocating to an unfamiliar suburb can be overwhelming, taking away the excitement of moving into a new home. However, becoming knowledgeable on the area and its community can alleviate some of those anxious thoughts and feelings.
There are currently many different communities within the Melton Shire, including but not limited to; Brookfield, Eynesbury, Harkness and Toolern Vale. It’s important to do your research on these separate areas to ensure that you are moving to a place which suits your individual wants and needs. Some of these areas are closer to schools and shops, whilst some are further away from the hustle and bustle.
Our website includes suburb profiles of the areas which are most popular amongst the community, helping you decipher which part of the wider Melton community will best cater to your needs.
Step Two: Spend some time exploring and visiting the area.
Spending time in the area before you move in to your new home is important.
You may want to spend the morning visiting different coffee shops and cafes until you find your favourite, or you may want to spend the afternoon familiarising yourself with local shops.
Another great idea is to become involved with local events before you make the big move. This can help you to meet some new people and to feel welcome within the community. The Melton City Council Website has an updated list of all upcoming events. https://www.melton.vic.gov.au/Home .
Whatever it is that you choose to do whilst in Melton, visiting the area frequently will ensure that it doesn’t seem like such an unfamiliar place when you’re trying to settle in. This will help to relieve some of those social concerns when moving suburbs.
Step Three: Make a list and stick to it.
The excitement and the stress of moving into a new home can cause your whole experience to be unorganised and chaotic. Whether it be a brief list with dot points or a table with every step explained, writing up a list can be extremely beneficial. These lists can comprise of anything from your moving budget, to the personal items that you need to let go of. Planning your move will be essential, and being able to see this plan and to visualise all of the different aspects, will ensure that there are no extra stressors and complications associated.
