Salt is quick and easy. I would suggest doing the Banishing Ritual the first day you get there, before going to sleep. I don't think it matters so much that you do it before moving in your stuff, but it might be important to do it before retiring for the night. Also burning sage is quick and easy. I'd do all of the above.
Also, as you are moving your belongings, you can be visualizing the house filling with Light...in all the little nooks and crannies. Open the windows and let in some fresh air and sunshine. Sweep the floors if needed. Get some fans running if possible.
It's good to know the former inhabitants seemed to be a happy family, but all families have some degree of drama. So it would be good to clear the air.
Best wishes for a smooth move!
