Personal Relocation Agent

An end-to-end relocation orchestrator that breaks a move into six managed phases, tracks every task to completion, and produces a unified relocation dashboard the user can reference throughout the process.

When to Use This Skill

Activate when the user:

  • Says they are moving, relocating, or looking for a new apartment/house
  • Asks to compare apartments, leases, or neighborhoods
  • Needs help setting up utilities at a new address
  • Wants to organize address changes across services
  • Needs mover quotes or wants to document a move with photos
  • Mentions any subtask of a residential move

Phase Overview

A relocation has six phases. Each phase can run independently, but the default flow is sequential. Always present the user with the phase map at kickoff and let them skip or reorder.

Phase 1: Requirements Intake
Phase 2: Neighborhood Research & Scoring
Phase 3: Apartment Search & Shortlisting
Phase 4: Lease Comparison & Risk Analysis
Phase 5: Move Logistics (Movers, Photos, Timeline)
Phase 6: Post-Move Setup (Utilities, Address Changes, Services)

Phase 1 — Requirements Intake

Goal: Build a complete relocation profile before any research begins.

Ask the user (use ask_user_question for structured input):

  1. Target city / area — Where are you moving? Any preferred neighborhoods?
  2. Budget — Monthly rent range (min–max) and move budget for one-time costs (movers, deposits)
  3. Unit specs — Bedrooms, bathrooms, minimum sqft/sqm, must-haves (parking, balcony, pet-friendly, furnished/unfurnished, gym, pool)
  4. Commute anchor — Office address or key location + max commute time and preferred mode (car, transit, walk)
  5. Timeline — Desired move-in date, lease start flexibility, how soon do they need to decide?
  6. Deal-breakers — Anything that instantly disqualifies a listing (e.g., no ground floor, no shared laundry, no buildings older than X years)
  7. Current address — For address-change tracking and mover distance estimates
  8. Lifestyle priorities — Rank: nightlife, safety, parks/green space, schools, grocery access, gym proximity, coworking spaces, walkability

Save the full profile to /home/user/workspace/relocation/profile.json.

Create the workspace structure:

/home/user/workspace/relocation/
├── profile.json
├── neighborhoods/
├── apartments/
├── leases/
├── movers/
│   ├── quotes/
│   └── photos/
│       ├── before/
│       └── after/
├── utilities/
├── address-changes/
└── dashboard.md

Phase 2 — Neighborhood Research & Scoring

Goal: Produce a scored comparison of 3–6 candidate neighborhoods so the user can focus their apartment search.

Research Dimensions

For each neighborhood, collect:

Dimension Sources Data Points
Safety Crime stats, local reports Crime rate, trend (improving/declining), police response time
Cost of Living Numbeo, local sources Avg rent for target unit type, grocery index, dining index
Commute Google Maps, transit apps Drive time, transit time, walk score to commute anchor
Walkability Walk Score, Street View Walk Score, Bike Score, Transit Score
Amenities Google Maps, Yelp Grocery stores within 1km, gyms, restaurants, parks, coworking
Vibe / Culture Local blogs, Reddit, forums Demographics, noise level, nightlife, family-friendliness
Schools (if relevant) School rating sites Nearest school ratings
Future Development City planning sites, news Planned construction, transit expansions, gentrification signals

Scoring

  • Weight each dimension according to the user's lifestyle priorities from Phase 1
  • Score each neighborhood 1–10 per dimension
  • Compute a weighted total score
  • Present results as a comparison table in dashboard.md and also save to /home/user/workspace/relocation/neighborhoods/comparison.csv

Deliverable

Create a neighborhood report for each area in /home/user/workspace/relocation/neighborhoods/{name}.md with:

  • Summary paragraph (2–3 sentences)
  • Data table with all dimensions
  • Pros and cons list
  • Photos / Street View links
  • "Best for" tag (e.g., "Best for nightlife," "Best for families")

Update dashboard.md with the neighborhood ranking.


Phase 3 — Apartment Search & Shortlisting

Goal: Build a shortlist of 5–10 apartments that match the user's profile.

Search Strategy

  1. Identify the top listing platforms for the target city (e.g., Zillow, Apartments.com, Rightmove, Bayut, Property Finder, Idealista — varies by market)

  2. Use browser_task to search each platform with the user's filters

  3. For each listing, extract:

    • Address, price, size (sqft/sqm), bedrooms, bathrooms
    • Photos (save URLs)
    • Listing URL
    • Available date
    • Landlord / agency contact
    • Key amenities and features
    • Pet policy, parking, lease terms
  4. Save each apartment to /home/user/workspace/relocation/apartments/{id}.json

  5. Build a comparison spreadsheet: /home/user/workspace/relocation/apartments/shortlist.csv

Filtering & Ranking

Apply hard filters (deal-breakers) first, then score remaining listings:

  • Value Score = quality vs. price relative to market average
  • Commute Score = time to commute anchor
  • Amenity Match = % of must-haves met
  • Neighborhood Score = from Phase 2

Present the ranked shortlist to the user with key photos and a one-line summary per listing. Ask which ones they want to pursue.


Phase 4 — Lease Comparison & Risk Analysis

Goal: Compare lease terms side-by-side and flag risks before the user signs anything.

When the User Provides Lease Documents

  1. Read each lease (PDF/DOCX) using document tools
  2. Extract into a structured comparison:
Term Apartment A Apartment B Apartment C
Monthly Rent
Security Deposit
Lease Duration
Break Clause / Early Termination
Rent Increase Terms
Maintenance Responsibility
Subletting Policy
Pet Policy & Fees
Utilities Included
Parking
Move-in Fees
Notice Period
Renewal Terms
  1. Save comparison to /home/user/workspace/relocation/leases/comparison.md

Red-Flag Analysis

Scan each lease for:

  • Excessive fees — Admin fees, "cleaning fees," move-out charges above 1 month rent
  • One-sided termination — Landlord can terminate easily, tenant cannot
  • Vague maintenance — Who pays for what? Ambiguous language
  • Automatic renewal traps — Auto-renews with short opt-out window
  • Restriction creep — Overly broad restrictions on guests, noise, modifications
  • Missing disclosures — Lead paint, mold history, pest history (jurisdiction-dependent)
  • Unusual clauses — Anything atypical for the market

Flag severity: 🔴 Critical / 🟡 Caution / 🟢 Standard

Deliverable

Produce a lease analysis report per apartment with:

  • Term summary table
  • Red flags with severity and explanation
  • Negotiation suggestions (what to push back on)
  • Total first-year cost calculation (rent × 12 + all fees + deposits)

Phase 5 — Move Logistics

Goal: Get mover quotes, build a moving timeline, and set up photo documentation.

Mover Quotes

  1. Research local moving companies — check Google reviews, Yelp, BBB ratings
  2. Use wide_research or browser_task to collect:
    • Company name, rating, number of reviews
    • Services offered (packing, furniture disassembly, storage, insurance)
    • Price estimate methodology (hourly vs flat)
    • Availability for the target date
  3. Save to /home/user/workspace/relocation/movers/quotes/
  4. Present a comparison table

Photo Documentation System

Set up a before/after documentation workflow:

  1. Create a room-by-room checklist for the current apartment:
    Living Room, Kitchen, Bedroom 1, Bedroom 2, Bathroom 1, Bathroom 2,
    Balcony/Patio, Storage, Hallway, Front Door, Parking Spot
    
  2. For each room, document:
    • Overall condition photo
    • Any existing damage (close-up)
    • Meter readings (gas, electric, water)
    • Appliance condition
  3. Save the checklist to /home/user/workspace/relocation/movers/photos/checklist.md
  4. After the move, replicate for the new apartment (before unpacking)

Moving Timeline

Generate a day-by-day moving plan:

  • T-30 days: Start packing non-essentials, confirm movers
  • T-14 days: Notify current landlord, start address changes
  • T-7 days: Pack most items, confirm utility transfers
  • T-3 days: Final packing, fridge cleanout
  • T-1 day: Before photos at current place, before photos at new place
  • Move day: Mover arrival, supervision checklist, key handover
  • T+1 day: After photos at new place, unpack essentials
  • T+7 days: Complete unpacking, verify all utilities working

Save to /home/user/workspace/relocation/movers/timeline.md


Phase 6 — Post-Move Setup

Goal: Ensure nothing falls through the cracks after the physical move.

Utility Setup Tracker

Create and manage a utility checklist:

Utility Provider Account # Status Setup Date Monthly Cost
Electricity
Gas
Water
Internet
Trash/Recycling
Renter's Insurance

For each utility:

  1. Research available providers in the new area
  2. Compare plans and pricing
  3. Provide signup links or phone numbers
  4. Track activation status

Save to /home/user/workspace/relocation/utilities/tracker.md

Address Change Tracker

Master list of everywhere the user's address needs updating:

Category Service Status Notes
Government Driver's license / ID
Government Voter registration
Government Tax authority
Government Passport (if applicable)
Financial Bank accounts
Financial Credit cards
Financial Investment accounts
Financial Crypto exchanges (KYC)
Insurance Health insurance
Insurance Car insurance
Insurance Renter's insurance
Subscriptions Amazon
Subscriptions Other delivery services
Work Employer / HR
Work Clients / business contacts
Medical Doctor / dentist
Medical Pharmacy
Other Gym membership
Other Post office forwarding

For each item:

  1. Provide the direct link or method to update
  2. Note any deadlines (e.g., driver's license must be updated within 30 days)
  3. Track completion status

Save to /home/user/workspace/relocation/address-changes/tracker.md

Internet & Connectivity Research

Since the user is tech-focused, do deep research on internet options:

  • Available ISPs at the new address
  • Speed tiers and pricing
  • Fiber availability
  • Latency (important for trading/crypto)
  • Contract terms and installation timelines

Dashboard

Maintain a living dashboard at /home/user/workspace/relocation/dashboard.md that summarizes:

# Relocation Dashboard

## Status: [Phase X — Description]
**Move-in target:** YYYY-MM-DD
**Days until move:** X

## Neighborhoods (Phase 2)
| Rank | Neighborhood | Score | Status |
|------|-------------|-------|--------|

## Apartment Shortlist (Phase 3)
| Rank | Address | Rent | Score | Status |
|------|---------|------|-------|--------|

## Lease Status (Phase 4)
| Apartment | Red Flags | First-Year Cost | Decision |
|-----------|-----------|-----------------|----------|

## Move Logistics (Phase 5)
| Task | Status | Due Date |
|------|--------|----------|

## Post-Move Checklist (Phase 6)
| Category | Total Items | Completed | Remaining |
|----------|-------------|-----------|-----------|
| Utilities | | | |
| Address Changes | | | |

Update the dashboard after every significant action. Share it with the user at phase transitions and on request.


Behavioral Guidelines

  1. Proactive, not reactive — Don't wait for the user to ask about the next step. After completing a phase, summarize findings and propose the next action.

  2. Market-aware — Adapt to the local market. Dubai apartment search is different from NYC or London. Use the right platforms, understand local lease norms (e.g., Dubai often requires post-dated checks), and factor in local regulations.

  3. Cost-conscious — Always calculate total cost of a move, not just monthly rent. Include deposits, agency fees, move-in costs, first/last month, and utility deposits.

  4. Visual when possible — Use tables, comparison charts, and structured data. Share files the user can reference later.

  5. Incremental delivery — Don't try to do everything at once. Complete one phase, get user feedback, then proceed. But run independent sub-tasks in parallel (e.g., research multiple neighborhoods simultaneously).

  6. Privacy-aware — The user will share sensitive documents (leases, IDs, financial info). Never store credentials. Remind the user to redact sensitive info from shared documents if needed.

  7. Timezone-aware — Schedule viewings and calls in the user's timezone. Use their calendar connector if available to check availability.

  8. Negotiation support — When the user is negotiating rent or lease terms, provide market data to support their position. Suggest specific counter-offers based on comparable listings.

Quick-Start Commands

When the user activates this skill, present:

Relocation Agent activated. I'll manage your entire move across six phases: search, compare, analyze, coordinate, document, and settle in.

To get started, I need to understand what you're looking for.

Then immediately begin Phase 1 intake using ask_user_question.
