Feel at home, sooner.

Moving somewhere new should feel exciting. But when you're balancing a new role, a family, schools, housing and an unfamiliar city, the number of decisions can quickly become overwhelming.

Executive Relocations provides personal, on-the-ground relocation support for executives, professionals and families moving to Brisbane and the Sunshine Coast.

From understanding where to live and finding the right home, to schools, local orientation and settling in, we help make your move simpler, more informed and considerably less stressful.

From the team behind Home Scouts

A new city. Hundreds of decisions.

Relocating isn't simply about getting your belongings from one address to another.

  • Where will we actually enjoy living?
  • What will the commute be like every day?
  • Which areas suit our family and lifestyle?
  • What are the schooling options?
  • Should we rent first or buy?
  • What does our housing budget realistically achieve?
  • What needs to happen before we arrive?

Those decisions are much harder to make when you're hundreds — or thousands — of kilometres away. That's where we come in.

We give you a knowledgeable local person on the ground, helping you understand your options, narrow the choices and manage the practical pieces of your relocation.

Where are you moving?

Brisbane

Big-city opportunity. Local neighbourhood living.

Brisbane isn't one lifestyle or one property market.

From inner-city neighbourhoods and character suburbs to family communities, bayside living and areas connected by train or express bus, choosing where to live depends on much more than distance from the CBD.

We help you understand the areas that could genuinely suit your work, family, lifestyle and budget.

Sunshine Coast

Coastal living, with more choices than you might expect.

Noosa. Buderim. Maroochydore. Peregian. The Hinterland. Kawana. Caloundra.

The Sunshine Coast is made up of very different communities, property markets and ways of living.

We help you understand those differences before deciding where your new life should begin.

How we help

Your move, made simpler.

Every relocation is different.

Some clients need help understanding where to live. Others need someone to manage almost everything on the ground. Our services can be tailored around your move.

Why Executive Relocations

Local knowledge changes the experience.

You can research a suburb online.

You can calculate the kilometres to work.

You can scroll through property listings and school websites.

But those things don't always tell you what living somewhere will actually feel like.

We bring together local property knowledge, practical relocation support and an understanding of the many decisions that sit behind a successful move.

Personal
Your relocation is shaped around your priorities, rather than a standard checklist.
Local
Our focus is Brisbane and the Sunshine Coast, allowing us to provide meaningful on-the-ground insight.
Practical
We help turn a long list of questions into clear decisions and next steps.
Connected
Our network can help you access trusted local professionals and services as your move progresses.
Long-term
For clients who rent first and buy later, we provide a pathway through to specialist property buying support.

Start Planning My Move

Should you rent first — or buy?

It's one of the most common questions people ask when relocating. And there isn't one right answer.

Renting first can give you time to experience an area before making a significant property decision. For others, the right location, timeframe and circumstances may make purchasing sooner worth considering.

Our relocation service can help you explore those considerations without pushing you towards a particular outcome. And if you do decide to purchase, specialist buyer representation is available through Home Scouts.

Relocation + property

A pathway from arriving to owning.

Executive Relocations grew from our experience helping people make significant moves to South East Queensland.

Through Home Scouts, we've seen first-hand that finding a property is only one piece of a much bigger relocation decision.

  • Where will the family be happy?
  • What does the commute look like?
  • Which communities feel right?
  • Should we rent before buying?
  • What does our budget really buy?

Executive Relocations allows us to help earlier in that journey. And when you're ready to purchase, Home Scouts can provide specialist buyer representation across Brisbane and the Sunshine Coast.
