Default Relo services

We tried using Relocation services a year ago. Unfortunately, the two agents we interviewed jacked up the price in order to recover the relocation fee from TV. We weren't wise enough to understand how unhappy that made our real estate agent. We are how $35K lower than we started out at in February 2018. Just lowered the price again today as we are coming anyway! (Why delay retirement and fun...). Will be looking next week for a PV rental until our house sells.

Secondly, the moving services that they have contact you seem to be about $1-2K higher than going out on the market ourselves. Just took bids today and they are coming in at $1-2K lower for the same level of them packing and moving with one month storage. Again, I think there is a premium on the referral that TV takes.

I know it works well for some and that is wonderful! But it didn't work for us. Just our experience!
