Apartment Relocation

Hi Everyone!

In today's working economy, many of us move from time to time whenever we decide to, while others are moving because of a job relocation. If you have a job relocating you to another state, then they will most likely provide you with a corporate apartment rental, which is fully furnished, and payed for by the company. If you're moving on your own, because of a job offer that pays better and has benefits in another state, then you're most likely going to apartment search/hunt for another apartment in the new state, and pay for it yourself. So during the relocating phase to the new state, a wise tip would be, just make sure you contact the apartment locator in the state you're moving too, before you move from your current state, in order to save from having to rent a hotel while have to wait for something to come available. This technique can be done if its planned accordingly along with the relocation move. Example would be you get a job offer in Texas, and you decide your state New York, isn't working anymore and take the offer. While your still paying rent at your current place, just make sure you don't run into paying double rent while moving to the new apartment in the new state. So in this case let's say your lease is up August 31, and the new job in the new state location wants you to start September 1, best thing to do is to start apartment searching 30-60 days in advance from the September 1 date, so you will be prepared with all the;

• Administration Fees
• Application Fees
• Security Deposits
• Prorated Rent
• Possibly 1st months rent or more (if required based from rental, credit, background and income checks)
• Pet Fees (if have pets)

Once you have all this figured out, and have accurate numbers make sure the apartment in the new state you want has the units available that fit your moveout window for August 31. So if you're getting all boxed up, and you've contacted the apartment locator to locate you some apartments, and you like a few by your new job in the new state, then it would be wise to find out well in advance if the complex has anything available before August 31, because if you don't get this information before you do the application, and you wait till after, and the apartment locator says you been approved, but the apartment complex says they will have something available after August 31, which will be on September 5 for you, then this will mess up your timeline. Also this is a major issue since your job starts on September 1, and your lease is up August 31, and you can't drive to the new job since its in another state, and to top it off you're now in a month to month territory with your landlord since your lease isn't past August 31. As I mentioned plan all this before you move to the new state, and do your diligence, so this apartment example won't happen to you. So in conclusion follow this order;

1. Contact apartment locator in the new state moving to
2. Get the apartments you like from them, and then pick which ones will work in your budget, and be close to your new job
3. Find out from these you like which ones have available units within your apartment relocation move date range (use 30-60 day window)
4. View them all if have more than 1, then pick the best one you liked
5. Then apply to the application immediately after seeing the one you liked best. (you shouldn't be applying to different apartment complex applications ever only one, so read the post & tips on here to understand why)
6. Lastly take a deep breath, and give yourself a pat on the back for now looking forward to your new apartment & new job in the new state you've relocated to, once you're approved, and get the keys.

Following this list will put you well on your way to the right road to take before you leave your current apartment, while also prepping you for the arrival to your new state apartment relocation.
