Many people may be put off by the effort and stress that comes with moving house. But, short term stress is a small price to pay for the house of your dreams!
There are many reasons why you may want to move out of your house. You may have found a new home that suits you better, or you may be forced to leave quickly due to issues with your residence. There are many private or personal reasons that justify moving house, here are just a few examples of some of the most common occasions that often end in moving day:
- Excessive rent and/or utility costs
- Overdue repair/damage to the apartment
- Problems with neighbours
- Changes in lifestyle
- You feel uncomfortable in the apartment
1) Excessive rent and/or utility costs
Especially in times of high unemployment, housing costs are an important factor in your monthly budget calculations. If your rent was already a little higher than you wanted when you first moved in, any further increases may be more difficult to afford. If you’re in this situation, it might be time to start looking through housing portals. You might be surprised at other comparable apartments in your area you can find at a much more reasonable price.
2) Overdue repair/damage to the apartment
It might depend on the severity of damages, but if you’ve been waiting for your landlord to make repairs for a while, it can become very irritating. If your landlord shows no effort to sort issues for you and do something about your damages, your only option may be to move out of the apartment.
3) Problems with neighbours
Neighbourhood disputes are very common, but not always easy to resolve. They can range from noise disturbances, annoying pets, and garden problems to noise disturbances from frequent parties. Unfortunately, inconsiderate behaviour among neighbours is not uncommon. If you can’t solve the situation through discussion, you could start by involving your landlord. If still nothing changes, moving might be the favourable option over the stress of dealing with your neighbours.
4) Changes in lifestyle
Some life events cannot be planned or can come as a complete surprise, like a new job, a new family member, or a divorce. In these situations, you can’t always immediately terminate your rental contract, you may have to observe your notice period. However, there are other situations that force you to move immediately. In this case, you will be dependent on the favour of your landlord. You may be able to come to an agreement and arrange an earlier move-out. Alternatively, you can provide a new tenant to avoid any financial disadvantages for your landlord.
5) You feel uncomfortable in the apartment
This last point is a very subjective one because everyone experiences things very differently. There are countless reasons why you may not feel at home in your own four walls, some of these may not even be rationally justified – it’s just the feeling, like the chemistry between two people that has to be right. If you’d rather spend time anywhere but your own home, consider moving out. Whatever your reasons for moving, at MoveAgain we’re always happy to help you.
