The important tasks during this phase are  finding accommodation
in the selected districts of the city and preparing the move. To get to
know the infrastructure in the region, Management Mobility Consulting
offers you two specific orientation tours "family"
and "business".
Finding accommodation and preparing the move
Objectives of our assistance
The main objective of our assistance in this phase is to find adequate
accommodation (rental or puchase) for the expatriate and his/her familiy.
Depending on their needs and wishes, this may be for example an individual
house in the country-side or an apartment in the nice districts of the capital.
During this phase it is essential to quickly react in the country to
identify interesting houses or flats and to reserve them immediately until
the client has made a decision.
Contents and methodology of our approach
In cooperation with the expatriate and his/her family we develop a profile
of needs and expectations of the client regarding the new accommodation.
On the basis of the established parameters, we start the house-hunting,
and preselect adequate accommodations for you.
We visit the preselected houses and give you our feed-back and impressions.
As a special service, we transmit you photos
of the accommodations by e-mail or internet. With this photo
service you will have the opportunity to judge yourself and the other
members of your family, thereby saving travel time and money.
Management Mobility Consulting also organises visits for you of preselected
accommodations, we accompany you during your visit and offer you assistance
during the negociations of the lease.
To prepare your moving in, our activities include full-service assistance:
- to accompany you at the move-in inspection
- to install the utilities in your new home
- to organise your household insurance
- to select a telephone provider and to obtain your new telephone number
- to open a bank account in Belgium
During the first two months, we are entirely available to you in case
of any defect in your new accommodation. Management Mobility Consulting
assists you in formulating an appropriate letter asking the owner of the
property to undertake the necessary repairs.
