How many times (so far) have you moved in your life? Only once? How about twice? For a brief period of time while in school? Do you have a job? Or have you relocated far too many times to count? What about the times when you moved from one location to another on your own? Were they a part of your family? Who is your partner? A couple of pals? And did you live in these houses long enough to call them yours? Sure, the vast majority of us will respond differently to each of these questions, but we will all agree on one thing: the overall experience.
To be honest, moving from one house to another is not an easy task. Consider the plethora of varying questions posed above. Moving can unmistakably be described as a strenuous, complex task that necessitates careful planning and absolute certainty. So make your decision wisely and rationally.
