Maybe your parents have encouraged your departure and are ready to let you go. They may want you to stay for good. It’s vital to communicate clearly your intentions and, if needed, your moving plans to them. Even if your friends are thrilled about the new adventure you’re embarking on, they may still be sad to say goodbye. When communicating your plans to move out, be sensitive to their feelings and needs.

  • Create a plan for moving out

Come up with a plan for moving out that you and your parents will both agree on before moving out. You should set a date by which you expect to be able move out. It doesn’t mean that you must move out before this date. But it can be a good starting point.

Your moving plan should also include your intended move date and the type of property that you are looking to relocate to. You should also consider whether or not you will have a housemate. Consider whether you’ll be using professional movers, or hiring friends to help. As your plans develop, you can always change your mind. But having a plan will help to get things started.

If you want to buy a house, know that having a credit score below average or no credit score will make it more difficult to get a loan. You can say goodbye to home ownership (at least temporarily) if you are unable get a mortgage loan.

Your credit history is also important if you intend to rent. Credit checks are now performed by many landlords and property management companies on prospective renters. The landlord can determine if a renter pays their bills on time by assessing the credit history of the potential tenant. If you plan to rent with no credit, a cosigner can sign your lease, for example a relative who has good credit. In the meantime, you should work on building up a strong credit score.

Experian says that one of the easiest ways for you to build good credit is by signing up for a card. You can use this to buy anything, from concert tickets to gas, and make sure to pay your monthly bill in full.

They may not be familiar with the area where you are looking to move. This can make it difficult to find an appropriate property. If things go wrong, you might have to fire the person and lose a good friend. If you don’t know if your friend or family member is familiar with the area you are moving to, politely decline their offer.

  • Ask your friends or family to help you schedule movers
