Sevenoaks Life Relocation offers a completely tailored relocation service as all our clients are different and each has a unique range of relocation requirements. Our fee structure reflects this flexibility and is based on an hourly-rate so that you can use us as much or as little as you want. We will provide you whatever you need to ensure a smooth relocation to this area.

Finding a home
Sevenoaks Life Relocation will discuss your housing requirements with you and use your criteria to form a list of houses for us to view on your behalf. We will make a preliminary visit to suitable properties and take up to 20 digital photos of each property which we will email to you along with a summary report. If you are able to visit Sevenoaks we can accompany you on pre-arranged viewings. When you have chosen a home, we will help you to negotiate a lease agreement or purchase price and arrange for connection to utilities to coincide with your arrival. We will also arrange for furniture rental if required. We can also arrange for cleaning and gardening services.

Finding suitable schooling
Allow Sevenoaks Life Relocation to pre-arrange visits and accompany you to interviews at local schools. When identifying educational facilities to meet your requirements, we take into account whether you wish to pay fees or not, the length of travelling time from your home and language or religious preferences. Some schools have entry requirements so we can arrange for application forms to be submitted prior to your visits. We can also help you to analyse Ofsted reports detailing the strengths and weaknesses of each school.
