Control home sale costs
Article Abstract:
The rising cost of homes and growing employee resistance to transfers are stimulating employer reconsideration of employee relocation policy. In the traditional home sale program, a third-party company is used to purchase and resell homes, but recent increases in mortgage rates have made reselling homes difficult. Some recent relocation innovations are: advance marketing assistance, home sale inducements-incentive programs, property management options, employee reimbursement agreements, mutual obligation statements, employee home investment protection, and spouse counseling.

A manager's guide to negotiating moving services
Article Abstract:
Managers in charge of relocating employees can use a third party to manage the move, or negotiate directly with the movers. By taking the time to learn about the services and prices charged by different vendors, relocation managers can make an educated buying decision based on the company's needs. When negotiating with movers, it is important to establish the carrier's pick-up and delivery obligation, insurance protection, extra relocation services, and prices. These and other aspects of negotiating a business or employee relocation move are discussed.
