Moving to Tasmania and moving within Tasmania has now become much easier with
the launch of Tasmania’s first relocation services company, Settled In Home Search
and Relocation Services.
When leaving Tasmania for Melbourne after graduating from University Jo Reardon
didn’t really think about if or when she might live here again, but fast forward
twenty years and the idea of returning started to make sense. It also helped that she
had met and married a fellow Tasmanian – Dale Reardon – a couple of years before.
So with the decision made the planning commenced and their house in the Macedon
Ranges outside Melbourne was on the market and a new house bought in Hobart
soon after. Throughout this process Jo started to think about what was next in her
work life and the result was a new business that would help others achieve the same
thing – a new life in Tasmania.
“I have long had an interest in property and have moved many times around
Melbourne, interstate to Perth and back and overseas to New Zealand. So that
interest coupled with my broad business experience and enjoyment of managing
projects resulted in the idea to create Settled In,” explains Jo.
Settled In Home Search and Relocation Services helps those moving to Tasmania find
a new home, schools and everything else they need to feel settled and get on with
enjoying the wonderful Tasmanian lifestyle.
“We tailor our services to exactly what our clients need. There are no set packages
that include services that may not suit you. We also pass on a wealth of practical
information about living in Tasmania to help with the settling process,” says Jo.
In addition to those new to Tasmania, the Home Search services offered by Settled In
can be utilised by anyone wanting to find a new home, even if you only want to
move within the same suburb.
“Anyone who has bought property knows that it starts out as exciting and can often
quickly become frustrating as more and more time is spent trying to find the
property that best suits you. If you want your weekends back, then we can help
you,” says Jo.
Settled In will do the searching for you and narrow down the options based on your
needs and then show you the properties which best suit. You will soon find your new
home, investment property or holiday house.
Settled In is based in Hobart and provide services to most parts of Tasmania.
