Before committing to a home

Ask for the full rent, deposit terms, included bills and any recurring building charges.
Check the address with the school or admission authority. A nearby school is not an offer of a place.
Try the commute on the days and at the times you would travel. Straight-line distance does not give a journey time.
Confirm healthcare eligibility and any cover you need before moving.
Keep refundable deposits separate from moving expenses in your cash plan.
