Once you've sold your home, you can proceed with your move and tie up the loose ends:
Make a file
File all closing and settlement papers; include receipts for any home improvements you made while you owned the house. Even though it's unlikely you will have to pay capital gains tax, you will need these figures for your next tax return.
Send change-of-address notices
Avoid getting caught by late payment fees: Before you move, send change-of-address notices to creditors, professional associations, and publications to which you subscribe.
Switch utilities
It's important to make sure your utilities are switched off at your previous address and switched on at your new address around the closing date. Urban Living's Concierge Service can handle it all.
