What do I need to consider when moving into a furnished flat?

Ruth FWhat do I need to think about? I’m moving into a new flat soon, it’s fully furnished, shared with a few other people (same kind of thing as a student flat, in the layout etc, only it’s not students).

Have you had problems with your electronics after moving into an old home with no grounds?

Is it better to move before finding a job or finding a job before moving?

AgentNightFireI’m considering moving (all still up in the air, of course), but I was wondering two scenarios. It’s hard to look for a job if you’re not in the area to physically scout the place, speak to people in person, etc. Yet, if you move without a job, there’s not really a source of income. I’m not sure what would be best. I’m certainly not rich, but job hunting can take a long time (especially with the economy as it is now.) What do HR managers/more ex... Read More

Tips for moving across the country with a cat?

AudCandI will be moving from SC to NV in a couple weeks and I am taking my 5 year old cat with me. I have already bought her a kennel and food for the trip. I originally planned to drive to NV with her in the backseat; however, I now have to ride in the moving van. It is a 3 day drive, and we will not be stopping at night so that we can get there as quickly as possible. Because of this, I will be forced to keep her in the kennel for most of the drive. I plan to get some sedatives and Rescue Rem... Read More
