Allen Tate Relocation offers the following services:
Corporate Relocation Policy Development
One of the key factors in reducing the stress associated with a corporate
transfer is having a specific and concrete policy pertaining to relocation
activity. For our corporate clients, Tate Relocation can review current
relocation policy and make suggestions for revisions, or help develop a
relocation policy to fit their needs.
We believe no company is too small for a relocation policy. If your company
does not currently have a formal relocation policy, we'll work one-on-one with
you to develop a policy appropriate to the volume of relocation activity seen
by your company on an annual basis. This policy would include all facets of
relocation from transportation of household goods to selling the departure area
property to selecting a new residence in the destination location. It would
outline all the policies and benefits provided to employees.
Counseling Transferees
A dedicated relocation counselor will be assigned to each of your employees.
The level of quality, one-on-one contact between our staff and transferring
employees is what truly sets Tate Relocation apart from other relocation
companies in the nation. Most members of the Relocation staff have relocated at
least once themselves and can thus empathize with all aspects of the move.
Between personal experience and the experience of moving thousands of people
over the years, there is seldom a situation your transferring employees may
encounter that we have not already faced.
Once the counselor has conducted a needs analysis with a transferee, we will
select the best-qualified Realtor to work with the transferee. The counselor
remains in contact with the employee throughout the home buying and relocation
process, acting as an advocate and assisting with all the details. Counseling
assistance for transferees is available after hours and on weekends.
Relocation Packets
Allen Tate Relocation provides customized relocation packets to each employee
who is offered the opportunity to relocate. These packets contain information
about the area where the employee would be transferred. For example, if
the employee is moving to this area, information is provided on the entire
region. Each transferee receives the Navigator Magazine, a newcomer's
guide exclusive to Allen Tate. This magazine features information on the area,
including golf courses, public and private schools, colleges and universities,
houses of worship and area employers for trailing spouses. It also includes tax
information, how and where to get a driver's license, attractions in each
county, special events and health care. Similar information is provided on any
area to which an employee is transferring nationwide.
Home Finding Assistance
Homefinding assistance and area counseling are valuable services designed to
ease the uncertainty of purchasing a home in an unfamiliar city within the time
constraints of relocation. Narrowing down housing options and previewing area
information are essential steps in making the most of a productive home search
trip.
Relocation counselors develop personal home search information based on
lifestyle needs and preferences for each relocating employee. Home finding
assistance includes:
Selecting a highly skilled real estate agent in the area
Providing information about local real estate markets
Advising of a home's appeal and future saleability
Mortgage financing pre-qualification and establishing the
employee's price range
The Relocation staff monitors the entire home finding process. If our clients
encounter any obstacles during the home finding process, there is always
someone to whom they can turn, right up through closing.
Rental Assistance
Our counselors also assist your employees with their rental needs. The Center
has a full-time rental assistance counselor who will help find the perfect
apartment at the best price and inform clients about which apartments are
offering discounts or special incentives.
Temporary Living
The Relocation Center also assists our clients with their temporary housing
needs. The counselor can determine the availability of temporary housing and
find the best price.
Tate Relocation has developed relationships with several corporate rental
providers to offer a variety of options. Corporate rentals are driven by
options such as location, services provided, time frame of stay, furnishing
needs, etc. Because we have a full-time staff member dedicated to staying on
top of industry fluctuations, we're able to provide the most competitive
options.
Marketing Assistance
Tate Relocation is a full-service, third party company offering marketing
assistance to relocating homeowners to help sell their property. The employee's
relocation counselor will assist in selecting an agent who will provide a free
competitive market analysis, and advertise, market and list their property. The
counselor remains involved in the process until the property is sold and
closed, assisting with marketing strategies and ensuring services are
delivered.
The marketing assistance program is extremely helpful for employees faced with
the time constraints of relocation. Your employees benefit from our
professional counseling, pricing recommendations and documented marketing
strategies that help maximize marketing efforts and facilitate a timely sale.
Corporate Homes
Allen Tate Relocation markets and manages corporate homes for third-party and in-house relocation clients. They are identified throughout the site by the  symbol to differentiate these homes in our search results to provide greater exposure.
Household Goods Shipment
The most personal, and sometimes emotional, aspect of a relocation is the
movement of personal possessions-family heirlooms, prized art, irreplaceable
photographs, the children's favorite toys. It is crucial that this part of the
relocation process be a seamless transition from the old location to the new
home.
Tate Relocation can alleviate your corporate administrative responsibility and
therefore reduce your costs significantly. Your dedicated counselor will
provide your employees with a detailed explanation of your Household Goods
Carrier Management Program and review your corporate policy and guidelines.
Employees will be able to communicate with us regarding any questions they may
have about their move.
