YOUR NEXT CHAPTER · GUIDE 11
Your next 90 days, one manageable week at a time.
A flexible, printable roadmap from first decisions to settling in. This is an organizing plan—not a promise that a home sale or purchase will close within 90 days.
Make the dates yours
Write your start date and target moving window on the worksheet. Adjust the order to your contracts, housing options, and energy. If the next home is not ready, pause the moving steps rather than forcing the calendar.
Work in short sessions
Give each task an owner and a date. Plan rest days and leave extra time for sentimental belongings. One completed cupboard beats an entire house of half-finished piles.
Revisit the plan at each decision point
Before listing, confirm your next-home strategy. Before booking movers, review possession and backup arrangements. Before leaving, confirm the handoff with your agent. Use the related guides for deeper checklists.
