What happens on the Completion Day

Sure you've had this advise but when you get into your new home, first thing to do is make up the bed(s) ...once you start shifting boxes / unpacking the last thing you're going to want to do come bed time is wrestle with duvets.

Also, keep a box with 'essentials' to hand - kettle, tea/coffee/squash, biscuits or snacks, cups for everyone (and plates) so you're not rummaging about in 101 boxes trying to find the kettle for a cuppa.

Our son's purchase completed at mid-day, he collected the keys straight away and he was in by 2 pm

Our purchase completed but we did not move in for several months as the bungalow needed so much work doing to it (the purchase did not depend upon the sale of our house).

Both properties were already empty.
