Seller possession checklist for Saskatoon homeowners.

Seller reminders

Final-week tasks before possession.

• InsuranceKeep insurance on your current home until funds are received and title has transferred. If you are also buying, your new-home insurance usually needs to be active about one day before possession.
• LawyerChoose a lawyer and arrange your appointment about two weeks before possession when possible. Out-of-province moves may require a lawyer licensed in that province.
• Moving vanContact your mover well in advance, especially for possession dates near the 15th or end of the month.
• SchoolsContact schools early to transfer or register children where needed.
• Landline, internet, cable, and securitySchedule disconnects or transfers. If monitored security is installed, arrange deactivation with your provider.
• Heating, power, and waterAdvise utility providers at least one week before possession so meter and disconnect timing is handled properly.
• Garbage and recyclingConfirm bin service details and leave bins according to City of Saskatoon and provider instructions.
• Change of addressNotify Canada Post, SGI, insurance providers, credit cards, subscriptions, health care providers, and rental companies for items such as water heaters or softeners.
• Move-out conditionRemove all non-attached contents and leave the property clean and move-in ready unless your contract says otherwise.
