Here Is Our Comprehensive Checklist for Using House Relocation Services

Do you have a residential site you’re developing or are you looking to move? Consider using a house relocation service to make the job easier for yourself. Here are the only three steps you’ll need to ensure you can relocate with ease.

1. Purchasing a site.

The first thing you’ll need is a site to relocate to. In order to ensure that your site is suitable, here are a few things you will need to ensure:

  • You have clear access to the site and the roads are accessible.
  • The site has a clear means of power and drainage.
  • There is stable ground and it’s not an area that has the potential for flooding.

2. The perfect house.

One of the first things you’ll have to consider is whether the house is structurally sound. You’ll also want a house that has a layout that can be oriented to take full advantage of the sun – knowing where the sun will rise and set in relation to the rooms in your house.

Because you’re buying an existing home, it’s possible you’ll want to make alterations to the layout, so make sure you’ve fully thought about whether you want to add extra walls, replace bathrooms etc.

3. Making it happen.

Here at Uplifting Homes, we work closely with you to ensure that you achieve everything you want and that your consent application is sent to the Council and is in line with regulations. We can save you time and money by making sure the purchase price for our listed removable homes already includes the cost of relocation.

Before your home can be relocated, you’ll need the following (we can help to meet these obligations with ease):

  • Geotechnical report
  • Septic and storm water reports
  • Building report
  • Site inspection.

There are of course additional costs that you need to consider. You may need to pay to secure council consent, hire tradespeople for renovations, obtain necessary reports etc. Costs of house relocations are so different it’s difficult to put a price on it, but if you’re looking for a quote, we’re happy to help.
