New homeowner jobs that are SO easy to forget after moving day 🏡 Register with a local GP Don't wait until you're unwell and suddenly realise your old surgery is miles away. Find a new dentist This can take time, especially if you're looking for an NHS dentist, so start early. Register to vote at your new address Updating your council tax does NOT automatically update the electoral register. Change the address on your driving licence If you own a car, update your V5C logbook separately — changing one does not change the other. Tell your local council you've moved in Even if you haven't received a bill yet, council tax usually applies from your completion or tenancy date. Register your warranties Think boiler, appliances, solar panels and any new-build warranty documents. Some registrations have a time limit. Save this for when the moving boxes have taken over your entire life 📦

Moving house admin doesn’t end when you finally get the keys 🏡 Once the boxes are inside, there are still a few important new homeowner jobs that are incredibly easy to forget. Register with a local GP, start looking for a dentist, update the electoral register and tell the council you’ve moved in. You’ll also need to change the address on your driving licence — and remember that your V5C logbook must be updated separately. Finally, check whether your boiler, appliances, solar panels or new-build warranties need registering in your name. Save this moving house checklist for after completion day, because these are exactly the little jobs that disappear from your brain once you’re surrounded by boxes. #MovingHouseUK #NewHomeowner #FirstTimeBuyerUK #MovingChecklist #creatorsearchinsights
