How can i convince my parents to move to another state?

I've made several corporate moves with husband and children in tow. The practicality of the matter is that moves are expensive and there are usually financial surprises, even when you have jobs in hand. So, in addition to the argument that you would like to move, you need to account for reasons that are in your parents' interest. These things might include being near to family and friends, employment and cost of living. For you, a move might affect your life for less than ten years, but for them, it is their life. If you want to go to a university in another state, but do not want to pay out of state costs, you might work a couple of years before enrolling. You can catch up with good friends who moved when you have the means to pay for travel and then return to your current place.

What are the most important steps to go about moving to a Foreign Country?

When moving to a foreign country in the 21st century, the internet is your friend. You should first check out the foreign travel advice sites from the UK and US governments. Then if you're not going to get kidnapped or bombed, start reading expat forums. Ask specific question online, and they'll lead you to forums from local people. If you're going with a company, they'll probably cover your visa, but if not, you'll need to know what is required. The country's embassy will be able to answer that question.

How much money should you save before moving to California?

There are a number of factors which are relevant to your financial needs when moving to California. If you already have friends and/or relatives in California, with whom you will be staying until you are ready to rent your own place, then the financial needs are much less. If you already have a job offer, possibly your new employer is prepared to assist you in getting a place to live. If you just like the idea of living in California but you do not know anyone there or have any job offer, then I would recommend that you save at least $3000 before moving there.

How do you get stress free relocation to your new home?

Whether you're moving down the street or thousands of miles away, your relocation adventure awaits. With more useful moving tips you can do much better:

  • Take an active role in the process, starting with the pre-move survey. Make sure you account for everything that needs to be packed and moved.
  • Do not include precious or valuable items in your pre-move survey. Items like jewelry, currency, important documents and photos should be something you keep with you during the move. Most valuation policies will not cover things like cash, jewelry.
  • Assess the value of your items before the move. Take video or pictures of everything you're moving, then list the items in a spreadsheet with an approximate replacement value.
  • If you have expensive items, it would be a good idea to get a professional assessment of their value before the move.
  • Avoid moving plants. Many moving companies will not move live plants and some states have laws prohibiting moving them across state lines.
  • Be "present and engaged" on move day. Be available to answer the movers questions without distraction.
  • If you have young children, arrange for off-site babysitting services. Moving day is extremely hectic, and if your attention is pulled between the kids and the movers, it will make it much more stressful for everyone involved.

For both relocation professionals and home buyers, the first - and most important - thing to remember is that planning is everything. Those who take the time to prepare are more likely to enjoy a successful move

Will a sofa 89x39x39 fit through a 36x80 door?

There is a good possibility that it can, there are some details that you should be aware of:

  • some sofa have detachable arms
  • some have detachable legs

Even if the sofa does not have the above options the design of the arms of the sofa will be your biggest hurdle, try to pass it through the opening at a diagonal, hopefully the clearance on each side of the doorway will not obstruct your move. You can also gain some doorway clearance by removing the door and or doorstops/jams.
