Relocating to Raleigh > Corporate Relocation

Corporate and Employer-Sponsored Relocation to the Triangle

Many people move to Raleigh, Durham and RTP because an employer recruited or transferred them. If your move comes with relocation benefits, the rules of your package can affect which agent you use, how your home sale back home is handled and which costs are reimbursed. Getting this right at the start can save real money.

Common Types of Relocation Benefits

Benefit typeHow it usually worksWhat to watch for
Lump sumYour employer pays a set amount and you manage the move yourself.It may be taxable income. Track your costs so you know what you are spending.
Managed relocationA relocation management company coordinates your move for the employer.You may need to use an agent approved by the relocation company to keep certain benefits. Ask before you call any agent.
Home sale assistanceHelp selling your current home, sometimes including a buyout option.Programs have specific steps, such as required marketing periods. Do not sign a listing agreement until you understand them.
Temporary housingShort-term housing while you look or wait to close.Know how many days are covered and when the clock starts.
House-hunting tripPaid travel to tour homes.Make it count by narrowing your list beforehand. See buying from out of state.

Questions to Ask HR Before You Start

  1. Does my package go through a relocation management company? If so, which one?
  2. Do I have to use a specific real estate agent or network to keep my benefits?
  3. Which closing costs, inspection fees and loan costs are covered on the buying side?
  4. Is there home sale assistance for my current home, and what are its steps?
  5. How long is temporary housing covered?
  6. Are any benefits paid as taxable income, and is there a tax gross-up?

How We Work With Relocating Employees

Scott Hoffman is a Certified Relocation Agent through Global Relocation Training Services and works with the Keller Williams Relocation Department, which coordinates with relocation management companies and employer programs. In practice, that means:

  • We follow your relocation company's requirements and paperwork so your benefits are protected.
  • We can refer you to a trusted agent in your current city through the Keller Williams network to sell your home there.
  • We line up your house-hunting trip around your schedule and the homes that fit your list.
  • We coordinate inspections, appraisal and closing with your timeline and start date.

Moving for a Job at RTP, Duke, UNC or NC State?

Start with where you will report each day and how often. Our commute and job centers guide explains how the highways connect each campus, our Town Matchmaker groups towns by distance to each job center, and our town comparison shows home prices and housing types by town.

If you were referred by your employer's relocation company, mention it when you reach out so we can coordinate correctly.
