I’ve moved every year for the past ~5 years. Moving is the absolute worst shit to ever exist. It’s expensive. It takes you 3 months to settle into a new place, then you get comfortable, then it’s time to pack up and move again. Don’t get me started on how much Ritz the Cat hates moving, too. Finally renewing a lease for the first time since college this year and I’m so excited to not have to move.
Have you looked at Craigslist for lease takeovers? My sister found mine there as a lease takeover and I’ve been there ever since after officially taking over the lease and getting renewed. Legit only looked at one apartment and just did it. Another good place to look for that is Listings Project. I sublet my place there often and have had great experiences. And lol it’s bad out there! Trying to decide whether to give my summer lease up since I want a change/some more space, but I’m worried about fucking myself over given the vacancy rate rn 🥴
