Relocating for a job -- should I stay or should I go?

Making the decision to relocate

Picture
For a lot of people, their ideal job can be found in the city they live in. For some, however, that job can be in another city, or even another province.

If you’ve received an offer for a job that requires relocating, it can be difficult to decide whether to accept that offer. There are some questions to ask yourself to help you decide if accepting that job and relocating is the right choice for you.


Some of the questions that should be considered are:
  • Is this the right opportunity for me? 
  • Is this job a short-term position or will this be a permanent move?
  • What are non-financial costs, including loss of professional and social network, and moving away from extended family? 
  • What opportunities will my partner have in the new location and are they willing to move?

These answers are not simple to arrive at, nor do they all have the same impact on your life. The decision making process is not simply weighing the pros and cons but rather taking a look at how relocation will affect all aspects of your life, personally and professionally.

What kind of housing will I relocate to?

A key issue is what type of property your future home will be. If you are relocating to a large city, living in a single family house may not be possible. You may find yourself looking at condos, townhouses, or duplexes. The opposite can also be true if you are moving from a big city to a smaller town and you find that you are able to live in a house. This change in type of housing can be a challenge for some.

Another consideration is whether you will be able to own or rent your home. If you are relocating from a big city, where rents and house prices are high, to a smaller town where housing is more affordable, this may allow you to become a homeowner. This possibility might play a big part in your decision making. For others, homeownership is not a priority and the possibility of owning is not important.  

To get answers about housing costs, access the Canada Housing and Mortgage Corporation’s databases.

If you do decide to relocate, then the whirlwind of activity to move your entire life begins, including finding and furnishing a new home. If you are looking for a room in a box or fast furniture service, Room Maker can help.

How can Room Maker help my relocation go smoothly?
