What our Clients Say

You can read more comments covering what our clients say from the testimonials.

Anders Olin a senior company executive was a client of PPS Relocation when his company Ericsson, moved him and his family from America to the South of England.  Anders said, “my Company move staff around the world fairly frequently.  My wife and young children had spent no time in the UK, so the prospect of organising the move from abroad was daunting.  However, the additional assistance we received from PPS Relocation beyond the mere finding and securing the rental property was invaluable.”

PPS Relocation takes a look at what happens when you have to relocate your staff and their families to work in your new offices!

Moving house is rated as the second most stressful undertaking in life behind divorce.  With this in mind, you are likely to be met with some reservations and objections by your staff to the idea of a move.  It inevitably means upheaval for their family, a new home, new schools and possibly a new job for the spouse, as well as an enormous amount of time and heartache in organising the entire process.

There is, however, an alternative.  There are property professionals who specialise in helping to relocate employees and their families into new regions PPS Relocation is just such an organisation.

PPS Relocation is a corporate relocation and home finding company helping people to rent or buy their ideal home and to settle in to the UK.  They take the headache out of a move for their clients and employers, ensuring that the member of staff does not spend weeks at work distracted by the ins and outs of organising their own move.

Barbara Sellers, Director of PPS Relocation, explains, “We take a full brief of the family’s requirements and whenever possible organise an orientation tour to introduce the family to the area.  We then make appointments to show the family suitable properties, we can advise on schools, doctors, leisure facilities and commuting times.  If the new employee comes from abroad, we also advise on the many practical and cultural issues facing a foreign visitor.  All of this can and often is coordinated from a distance, removing the need for the family to travel to area repeatedly.  We do all of the ground work and use our extensive knowledge of the area to make the programme efficient and effective, both in terms of time and money.”

Once the family has made their decision, PPS Relocation act on their behalf to make the offer, secure the property and negotiate the terms of the tenancy or follow through to exchange and completion. On moving-in day, if renting, PPS Relocation can check the inventory, organise the utilities and provide further information on local facilities and services.

You can imagine the impact that all of this has on the family’s attitude towards a move.  It no longer looms as an interminable headache but becomes a new adventure.  This in turn means fewer objections from staff to the company’s move and an all-round smoother transfer.
