Depending on your property and location, some services may already be connected, while others require a new contract, activation or coordination with a local provider. This guide helps you understand what to check, where to compare options and how to prepare your home for a smooth move-in.

From electricity and heating to internet access, a few practical checks can help you get your new home ready. Find out what to arrange, who to contact and what to confirm before moving in.
