Save Up Enough Money
- Find an apartment or home based upon the rent you can afford
- Determine how much you need to save: (1st month’s rent ) (last month’s rent ) (security deposit) (broker’s fee) (emergency: at least one month’s expenses)
Make a Budget
Calculate monthly income after taxes:
- Determine how much rent you can afford (around 30% of monthly income)
- Add cost of utilities to monthly rent:
- Subtract rent and utilities total from monthly income and divide the remaining amount between food expenses, transportation expenses and leisure activities
Formulate Plan B
When Plan A does not work, it is always good to have a Plan B (backup plan).
HOUSING PLAN B
- Could you get a temporary job or find another source of income?
- If a job falls through, will family/friends financially support you?
- Could you get a temporary job (hosting, etc.)?
