The move from one country to another is so challenging — there’s so much to understand. New commutes, new schools, new houses, new systems, a whole new community. But with the right support, it won’t take long to feel at home — much quicker than you thought it would.

The M family were relocating to the UK for Mr M’s work.

They knew the rough area they needed to be in for his commute, and had already identified a school they hoped their children could attend. It was actually the school’s admissions team who got in touch with us to help the family find a home and settle in Surrey.

THS has a specialist international relocation department, headed by the unflappable Sally. She met with the family several times over Zoom, then met them off the plane, and — working with one of our network of buying agents — took them to see several properties. Once the house was found, we worked hard to source rental furniture to tide them over, and brought in an interior designer to help them make the house their own. We also showed them around their new area, helped them set up UK bank accounts, and found them sports clubs, hairdressers, and everything else that makes a place feel local. All of this meant that when they arrived at their new home, every possession was already there and unpacked — and the house felt like home from day one.

The Homemover Specialist’s service is about so much more than just a move. It’s about knowing our local areas inside out. It’s about listening to our clients and finding solutions. It’s about making life easier, calmer, smoother. In short — it’s all about making them happy.
