ON THE HUNT
At this stage, you’re probably looking at—and sharing—dozens of listings. We suggest creating saved searches in your preferred area and enabling listing alerts on all of your devices to make sure you don’t miss out on “the one” as soon as it hits the market.

CLOSING IN ON CLOSING
Once you find your place, things are going to move quickly. Between contract and closing, you can use the listing photos of your future home to get a head start on planning. Start making a furniture plan and think about where you want to put your devices—from your security system to your speakers. Then pack those items according to where they’ll end up.
Fios is built to connect with smart home devices—think security cameras, smart lighting, voice assistants, and more—to make your house safer and smarter right away.

Ready to Move
Time to take care of business—
but it doesn’t have to take forever. Spend 5 minutes each day tackling little tasks like filing your change of address and making digital copies of important documents. (And don’t forget to update your address in your delivery apps for ordering takeout on your first night too!)
It’s not just the internet that’s super-fast—Fios lets you get signed up and set up in no time with flexible installation on nights, weekends, and even same-day in some cases. Or if you’re more of the DIY type, Verizon can ship you everything you need to get connected in about 30 minutes.

Unpacking will go faster if you get in the groove. Prepare a playlist of your favorite feel-good tunes and keep a wireless speaker in your bag for the big day. You’ll be flying through this task and feeling at home before you know it.
Move-In Movie Night
Start streaming Fios TV before the couch even arrives. As soon as you place your Fios TV order, you can download the app to start watching immediately without waiting for your service appointment.

Settling In
Start your neighborhood immersion by challenging yourself to try a new local spot once a week for the first month. Create a shared spreadsheet with your family or “favorite” places on a maps app so you can keep track of ones you want to return to.
Fios has super-fast upload speeds, which makes for virtually lag-free video chatting so you can show
off your new space to long-distance friends and family after your
big move.
