Relocation Tips From A Professional Relocation Manager - Rebecca Tsang Mang Kin Moving Countries 101
-
- Places & Travel
Today, Clare is with Rebecca Tsang Mang Kin who offers bespoke relocation and property management services. She shares her experience of relocating twice from Mauritius to the UK and talks about what she has learned while helping clients relocate to various locations.
Because Rebecca has been involved in so many moves this episode is packed with practical advice for those who are considering relocating or who have moved recently. Rebecca relocated while single and later again when she was married and had children, so she has insider knowledge of both relocation scenarios.
Originally from Mauritius, Rebecca came to the UK to study and then work. She returned to Mauritius for 9 years, and recently relocated again to the UK. Rebecca's relocation business serves individuals and businesses, tailoring relocation services to people's needs. She also helps overseas landlords to manage their properties in the UK.

KEY TAKEAWAYS
For children, moving countries is an emotional rollercoaster.
The style of education can be different, and many kids need additional support to get used to that.
The official language is not always the one that is spoken day to day. You need to study and prepare for this.
Have a plan but be open-minded and ready to take advantage of a better opportunity.
Not everyone wants to sell up completely before relocating. Rebecca outlines how to handle being a landlord while living in a different country.
Relocation managers think about and handle the things that people who are moving don´t think about e.g. in some places to be able to rent somewhere you need a local bank account.
When moving country your credit rating is likely to be low which can have a big impact on what you can afford.
A relocation manager´s local knowledge will save you time, money, energy, and stress. For they know how long what looks like a short commute will actually take and cost. Information that will help you to rent a home in the right area.
BEST MOMENTS
‘Understand the emotional side of relocation. ´
‘Relocation sometimes is much more complicated than people might think.’

Podcast Description
When you move for a new job, to live with someone after a long-distance relationship or to explore the benefits of a new lifestyle, moving countries occurs as an opportunity, but it still might be a bumpy ride. Moving Countries 101 presents a paradox of moving to a new destination, but it being all about the journey: the ongoing experience of having moved countries.
Clare and her guests share the human stories of an ancient undertaking in modern times. Moving countries prompts change, and change provokes being unsettled emotionally, physically, mentally, and spiritually. On all these fronts, moving countries promotes observation, opportunity, and discovery.
