We’re thrilled to celebrate National Moving Month and provide real estate agents, property managers, and moving companies with creative and educational resources that they need to ease the moving process for their clients.

“Moving is one of the most overlooked, but stressful, activities in life,” says Jenna Weinerman, Marketing Director at Updater. “We’re thrilled to celebrate National Moving Month and provide real estate agents, property managers, and moving companies with creative and educational resources that they need to simplify the moving process and deliver an incredible moving experience to their customers and residents.”

Throughout May, Updater will host several moving-related webinars with industry thought leaders and release educational content aimed at helping real estate professionals, property managers and moving companies educate their clients and residents about the moving process. Updater’s National Moving Month initiatives include:

Webinars with industry thought leaders:
