Moving into Walsh? Plan around the closing date

Walsh is a 7,200-acre master-planned community on I-30, west of downtown Fort Worth. It is inside Fort Worth city limits, spans Tarrant and Parker counties, and is zoned to Aledo ISD. You reach it from I-30 Exit 1A onto Walsh Ranch Parkway. Because Walsh is part of Fort Worth, it is inside our Fort Worth service area. Many Walsh moves are new-construction move-ins, and those have their own timing problems.

The closing-day problem (and how to plan for it)

With a builder home, the move date depends on the closing and key release, and those can move. Here is how we plan a Walsh move-in:

• Pack early, move late. Packing can happen at your current home days before closing, so moving day is only loading, driving, and unloading.

HOA and community rules

Walsh has a homeowners association, and the HOA page lists amenities and services, including front-lawn maintenance for each home. Before moving day, check with the HOA about any rules for moving trucks, parking, or delivery hours, and whether they need a certificate of insurance from your mover. We can provide a certificate of insurance on request.

New-construction move-ins: what to protect

New homes have fresh paint, new floors, and door frames that have not been scuffed yet. On a move-in we can:

• Take apart and put back together beds, tables, and large furniture.
• Place furniture and boxes room by room according to your floor plan.
