Worst yet huge boxes become smaller and possessions seem to multiply in the night. The only way to get a handle on a move is to plan a strategy, make a list and budget huge amounts of time in advance to get the job done properly. Use the following suggestions as a guideline to help: Post Office: Change forwarding address online, click here! Charge Accounts, Credit Cards Subscriptions: Notice usually requires several weeks Friends and Relatives Arrange: Bank: Transfer funds, arrange check-cashing in new city Insurance: Notify new location for coverage: Life, health, fire, auto. Automobile registration: Transfer of car title registration is necessary; also driver's license; emissions test; motor club membership. Utility Companies: Gas, light, water, telephone, perhaps fuel; get refund of any deposits made; arrange for immediate service in new town. Route Services: Laundry, paper, mild delivery, changeover of services School Records; Ask for copies of transfer of children's records. Medical, Dental; Ask Doctor and Dentist for referrals; transfer needed Prescription Histories prescriptions, eyeglasses, x-rays. Church Club: Transfer memberships, get letter of introduction. Pets: Ask about regulations for licenses, vaccinations, tags, etc. Don't forget to: Empty freezer, plan use of foods Defrost freezer-refrigerator, Place charcoal to dispel odors Have appliances serviced for moving Obtain birth records and baptism records of all children Clean rugs or clothing before moving; have them moving wrapped Check with your Moving Counselor regarding insurance coverage, packing and unpacking labor, arrival day, various shipping papers, method and tie of expected payment Plan for special care needs of infants. And on moving day... Carry currency, jewelry, documents yourself; or use registered mail. Plan for transporting pets; they are poor traveling companions if unhappy Carry traveler's checks for quick available funds. Let close friend or relative know route and schedule you will travel, including overnight stops; use as a message headquarters. Double check closets, drawers, shelves to be sure they are empty. Leave all old keys needed by new tenant or owner with agent or Realtor.

Investment Property Consumer Focus:

FCIC - Consumer Focus -- SITE SEARCH: Books Resources 1-888-8 PUEBLO (1-888-878-3256) Home Consumer Focus Archive Owning a Second Home or Investment Property Consumer Focus: Owning a Second Home or Investment Property Owning a Second Home or Investment Property For various reasons, the idea of owning a second home or investing in property is on many people's minds nowadays. Some dream of having a second home in a more moderate climate. Others, wishing to diversify their investments, are considering real estate because of continued record low mortgage interest rates. If you're interested in the idea, but not sure how to get started, we've assembled some helpful information. Second Home or Investment Property? Criteria Looking Around The Transaction Additional Responsibilities Financing Other Resources E-mail this Information to A Friend Other Topics in the Consumer Focus Archive Top Second Home or Investment Property? The process will be simpler and smoother if you can make some decisions about your lifestyle, needs, and plans for the property at the beginning. Generally, if you're looking for a place to spend the winters for several months at a time or to take frequent weekend getaways, then you're most likely considering the purchase of a second home. However, if you're looking to generate income or diversify your investments, then you're looking to purchase investment property. Check our web site later this month for more information regarding investment property and how to be a landlord. The information below pertains primarily to buying a second home. In either case, you're entitled to different types of tax deductions depending on how you treat the property. Criteria The criteria defining a second home are fairly loose. A second home doesn't necessarily mean a "house." It could be a condominium, a recreational vehicle , or even a boat. Basically, for your second property to be considered a second home by the IRS, it needs to have sleeping accommodations and cooking and toilet facilities. A second home qualifies for the home mortgage interest deduction, just like your primary residence, because you're using the home for personal purposes during the year. Many folks have second homes that are part rental. The catch is that your personal use needs to exceed 14 days or 10 percent of the time it was rented, whichever time length is greater. In addition, if you rent your home for fewer than 15 days a year, and personally use it for more than 15 days a year, you do not need to declare any rental income. Everyone's circumstances are unique. Consult a tax professional regarding deductibility. Top Looking Around Do you want to buy a second home in your favorite vacation area , or a weekend spot not more than a few hours' drive away, but don't know what the market's like? You might want to do some research on the web using Realtor.com or visiting the web sites of the individual real estate companies in the area where you wish to purchase a property. Some real estate-related web sites allow you to tailor your search you select such as price, number of bedrooms/baths, type of home, or location sorted by zip code. If you're considering this home to be your future retirement home, then you also should consider additional factors such as the annual climate. Weather.com allows you to view monthly climatic averages for cities around the country. You also might look for information and articles discussing cost of living or " best places to live for retirees" from groups such as the AARP. The Transaction You'll probably want to work with a local realtor to help with the transaction, especially if you're considering an out-of-state purchase. A knowledgeable realtor should be aware of important factors that could affect your decision. For instance, if the locale you're considering has development restrictions, like those involved with historic districts where strict design, remodeling, or building codes may be enforced. In addition, the agent will do much of the legwork for you and ensure that all the bases are covered during the transaction. Just as you did when you purchased your primary residence, you should still have the property inspected. Take the effort to know your rights . Top Additional Responsibilities Remember, owning a second home is just that-with all the associated responsibilities and expenses that it brings. Check individual state web sites for property taxes. How much maintenance are you willing to take on? If you're not willing to take on a lot of extra maintenance and yard work, consider buying a condo and hiring a property management company. Of course you'll need insurance. In some areas, you may be surprised by the rates you'll need to pay for homeowners insurance . Coastal areas usually have higher premiums due to hurricane risk, and you may need to buy a separate flood insurance policy as well. Financing Just as you did when you bought your primary residence, be sure to have your financial affairs in order before you even begin looking. Get a copy of your credit report and be sure there are no errors, which could delay or hurt your financing options. Also, be prepared to meet some stricter criteria to get the loan. This is because your finances will be stretched more thinly once you take on that second mortgage. Top Other Resources This is just a brief overview.
