We're doing almost the same thing next week and would love to get a jump on things! Thks in advance and Happy Turkey Day!! Gene H. (Moving into Lake Deaton)
Gene:
Welcome to Lake Deaton. We are in Hillsborough.
We contacted Sales to obtain access to the house prior to closing so we could measure for furniture, do a pre-inspection walk through by ourselves, take more photos of the house (inside and out), and review again all of the details in the house. Once we obtained this, we then contacted 48 Hour Blinds and had Rick come to the house when we were there. This worked out very good for us.
We did our own detailed inspection, putting sticky note sheets where there were issues (e.g., paint nicks, tiny holes, etc.). We then took photos of these issues in case some removed the stickies (e.g., cleaners prior to closing).
On the same day of the plantation shutter installation, we also had a washer/dryer, television, mattress and box springs, and bedroom set delivered. Busy day. Also on that day we had our cable and internet scheduled to be installed and that worked out fine also. We use Bright House for cable/internet. If you want to use them, then please contact Lysander Jimenez at 352-414-6756 and Lysander.Jimenez@mybrighthouse.com
If you are using another company, that is fine.
We also contacted lawn/pest control companies for quotes.

Good luck.
Gary
