Keys and handover
Signing is not the end. At the handover the condition and meter readings are written down, and the utilities pass to you.
What people most often run into at this step
Problem
Disputes about the condition after moving in
What was in the flat and in what state.
What we do: At the handover we record the condition and what stays in the property.
Problem
Old utility bills
The previous owner's bills arrive at your address.
What we do: We record the meter readings on the handover day, so it is clear who pays what.

Moving the utilities
Electricity, water, heating, each at a different counter.
