Tips For Moving….

4 April 2016

Lovett have some fabulous tips that may help our homeowners when moving into a new property.

Tip 1:

Make sure you set up your Gas, Electric & Water. Shop around to get the best deal, it’s a very competitive market!

Tip 2:

Tell your banks! You do not want your ‘proof of address’ on current documents being different to your current address.

Tip 3:

Arrange internet connection at your new property. If you leave it too late you will risk not being connected for weeks! A normal waiting time for setting up a new service is 12-14 days so plan ahead!

Tip 4:

The DVLA need to know you’re moving so you need to update your driving licence and remember to change your address on the V5C vehicle registration certificate – these are both legal requirements. The police can now issue points if your current address is not on your licence.

Tip 5:

Pack the Kettle and some tea bags last, it will make it easier to find when you get to your new home, your going to need that tea and coffee when moving. Also knock for the neighbours and introduce yourself, community spirit still exists!

Lovett REVIEWS

I recently bought a flat through Lovetts in Bournemouth, they were fantastic throughout the process, Clair in particular was very responsive and contacted the vendors for me with several questions, which really sped the whole process up.

Me and my husband just purchased a house through Lovetts and I can't complain at all! We did have a bit of a long journey before finally exchanging which was stressful but Clair who was our main contact towards the end made sure to always keep us in the loop and worked so hard to get everything sorted, she was lovely to deal with! Would definitely recommend 😊😊

We bought a flat through Lovetts and have had friendly and professional service from start to end. We cannot thank Clair enough for her help throughout our sale. She has always been at the end of the phone to answer any questions we have and has always kept us updated in a timely fashion. Massive thanks to the whole team!

I researched about 4 different Letting Agents. I liked the rates charged by Lovett the most, and although all the agents were lovely, I decided to go with Cailey. I was not disappointed and a lovely new tenant the next day at the full rental price agreed.

For some, selling a property is a rare experience that requires guidance and clear explanations with a prompt response to questions asked. By introducing the team members who will play key roles in the sales process it gave me more understanding of the timescales and processes, all very helpful when I am in a different country and restricted by travel regulations due to the pandemic. I felt reassured on many occasions when contacting any of the team by phone - they all understood my property and where we were in the sales process, making me feel valued. A great professional team. Thank you.

This was such a positive experience from viewing to getting the keys. They treat you like a human being and not just a number. They consider everything and are very warm and welcoming (which I've never experienced with a letting agency) Cailey in particular was fantastic she was friendly, helpful, professional and patient. She supported us throughout the whole process that could have been very stressful but she made ita breeze. Would recommend to all!! Best experience I've ever had with letting agent.

James, Abbey and the team did an amazing job for us in successfully marketing our property and then helping to complete the sale.The photos and video they put together were professional and of high quality- it generated instantly a full week of viewings.We didn’t though need the full week - it sold after the viewings on the first day, with many offers tabled by very happy prospective buyers.Lovett then recommended a conveyancing team who completed in six weeks, with James continuing to support both the buyers and us with questions and any paperwork etc.Lovett had successfully rented the property out for us for two years previously and we are delighted with their service over the years.Highly recommend them across all their branches in the area.

This is the first review in 40 years i have given regarding an estate agent.James came as agreed, took photo's and a video tour, and put the house on the market the next day as he said. We then received a call and email confirmations from Abbey regarding 8 viewings within 24 hours and have accepted an offer. (not the highest). The service and professionalism has been second to none. Fantastic service, really pro-active and extremely well escorted viewings by Abbey amazing to say the least. Thank you and can't recommend Lovett's enough.

I would highly recommend the team at Lovett - they say moving house is one of the most stressful events in your life and they are not kidding BUT Clair supported me through the whole process, she went way above my expectations. The quality and attention to detail of the sales team was excellent - I was regularly kept up to-date with what was happening on the general market but also provided with solutions to ensure I secured a buyer to a successful conclusion. I cant thank them all enough.

Lovetts have looked after our rental property for over 7 years with faultless expertise. Staff are always friendly & willing to help nothing is too much trouble. On selling our property they have been exemplary & we would recommend them to anybody wishing to sell or let a property.We would like to thank James, Poppy, Annabelle, Emma, Abbey, Zdenka & most of all Clair for their fantastic help & support over the years from letting to selling our property.

I found Lovetts to be the best estate agents I’ve dealt with when buying a property.Quite a long and sometimes frustrating process was made a lot more bearable by the professionalism and helpfulness of the Lovetts staff, especially Clair.I would definitely recommend and I would happily use their services again.

Amazing experience with the team, first of all James was fantastic showing me around the property. Then Clair took over to deal with the next stages, who was amazing, so responsive, friendly and just gets the job done. Couldn’t have asked for a better person to guide me through the process. Thank you to the whole team!

Found Lovett to be very prompt and professional as well as pleasant to deal with. Clair, Julian and Abbey were all very good. Unfortunately our purchase fell through at a late stage but this was no fault of Lovett. I'd be very happy to deal with them again in the future.

As a buyer of a house through Lovett I experienced a first-class service. They are always willing to go the extra mile and provide a very professional service. Clair and David were great agents throughout the process and were very helpful. I would highly recommend using Lovett International.

Very professional and proactive. When selling our house, their proposals resulted in finding a buyer very quickly and though the legal and financial process (through no fault of Lovett) was problematic and stressful at times, Lovett worked non-stop to see it through to completion. The entire team were excellent but a special mention for Clair Clarke who managed the sales progression, tirelessly chasing solicitors, brokers and buyers, and providing frequent updates to us throughout. Outstanding.

I've bought a house through Lovett and now they have found tenants for another property of mine. The staff are so professional and always have a smile. They listened to what I wanted and found what I wanted - well done.

Abbey has been a great help in my search for a new home. Professional, knowledgable, friendly, very helpful in communicating with the seller to help ease what would otherwise have been a stressful move, and a fantastic sense of humour. Thank you Abbey!

Clair Clarke has been the most outstanding ambassador for Lovett's. Throughout the most incredibly difficult process of the sale of my husband's late parents' property, Clair has been our absolute rock! She has been the epitome of professionalism, whilst becoming a friend and our source of sanity and sensibility in the face of massive adversity. Words are utterly inadequate to express our gratitude and praise for her dedication and mediation skills. We cannot recommend her highly enough! Thank you Clair and your team at Lovett International, Bournemouth.

Clair Clark is a knowledgeable and personable estate agent. She has patience tact and a deep understanding of what is required to get your property sold. Wherever your property is I would highly recommend Lovetts.

I am selling two flats and at all times through quite a difficult situation they have been extremely professional. They constantly kept me updated with frequent phone calls and helped me with any questions I have needed answered. These has not been a straightforward sell as we have had probate to go through and we don't live in the area. I would certainly recommend them.
