Relocation Programme Details

  
 

Preparation Prior to Arrival of Family - Prepare for housing, school and other orientation needs based on pre-move questionaire.

Area Orientation
- Orientation of local area to include schools, sports complexes, shopping districts, modes of transportation and other individual interests.

In dealing with the one of the most important issues, which is your housing requirements, here, through local estate agents and personal contacts with local developers, we continue to find a selection of potentially suitable properties whether for purchase or rental until one is chosen.

On behalf of you or your company we conduct the negotiations with agents, landlords or vendors, and their legal representatives.

For rental property we negotiate the terms of the tenancy agreement in accordance with the requirements outlined to us by our client company. We also deal with the utility companies e.g. ESB, EIRCOM, and GAS etc. to ensure that all essential services are in place in time for the move.

If you would like any of the décor/furnishing/fittings/exterior of the chosen property changed, we will endeavour to negotiate with the Landlord or Landlord’s Representative to have these carried out.

There is a final inspection of each property by us prior you moving in to ensure all is in order.


Education can be a determining factor in where you choose to live and we give this serious attention.

We make appointments with Educational Establishments so that the young person's individual needs can be discussed and its suitability can be established.

To cater for younger children, we research kindergartens, nursery schools and play groups close to the new home.

We will explain the Irish Medical and Dental Services including private patients’ schemes and their associated procedures. We can arrange introductions to doctors and dentists in the appropriate area.

We work hard to ensure a trouble-free move. However, there can be cases where minor but irritating problems occur during the early days of occupancy so we have an after-care policy to promote a smooth settling-in period.

Bank/Insurance Assistance - We can help you with opening a local bank account and handle all relevant insurance policies.

Vehicle Purchase or Rental Assistance - Registration of cars as well as obtaining necessary driver licences and driving lessons.

Community Orientation - We can introduce you to services specific to your local community – shops, leisure facilities, public transportation, public amenities, medical, dental, refuse collection and any specific matters on which you may require information.

We remain on hand to offer help and advice with any such problems and to secure a speedy resolution. The executive or client company is welcome to contact us during this period to seek advice.

Our Company also provides a Departure Program for those Executives and their families who for whatever reason may have to return to their native home.

Property - Arrange Notification to the Landlord and ensure the property is handed back in same condition it was received with inventory intact. Organise refund of Security Deposit.

Utilities - Closure or Transfer of utilities and obtain refunds if applicable.

Insurance - Arrange cancellation of policies and obtain refunds if applicable.

Car Registration - Turn in plates and get tax reimbursement if applicable.

Bank Accounts - Arrange for closure and forwarding of documentation.
