Moving decisions cannot be made in a jiffy. It is important to find a home where you feel safe, are protected, and happy. Keys are security, affordability, future plans, and convenience. Jot down your needs on one side of a sheet of paper and what you don’t like about your present apartment on another. Put it away for a day or so, then read through it once again and find out whether all you wrote down still applies or whether you feel differently. If you still feel the same then it is a good idea to move.
