I was wondering if anyone who has moved a far distance away from home for grad school or anyone who is planning to move had any advice for someone who will be doing this very thing in July/August. I know there are others out there like me who are a little stessed and unsure how to make this gigantic step. So here are my personal questions (although I encourage others to chime in with their questions as well):
-What is the best way to find cheap/good housing? (e.g., using a realtor)
-What if someone (like me) has animals? (cats and dogs)
-It is expensive to fly back and forth to view houses/townhouses/apts, so what is the best way to find the best home without having to spend a million bucks on travel fair to inspect homes?
-Is it better to buy a house if you have a partner or just rent since it will only be ~6 years?
I hope there is someone out there who has some good suggestion! Thanks guys!
P.S. I apologize if there is already a thread out there like this!
