What's the reason why did you move?

On my experience the reasons for us moving from one place to the other are just first the place that we are living and renting has just been burned down to ashes, because of someone burned their house because they're being kicked out of their houses.... "That sucks they didn't even informed us that they will do that." The second one is we cannot afford the rent, we can pay for it but almost all or half of my mother, father, and aunties earning will just be used to pay for the rent that why we moved out again.. whats the reason why did you moved houses? Will you share it?

I am totally in a different scenario altogether from you. I have 2 houses that needed to be occupied and I hop from one house to the other every now and then. I live a nomadic life as I will not stay in one place longer than 6 months.

I'm nomadic too. For 2 months we live in Montana. Then for a month we stay in San Diego with my hubby.

I like that life but what puts me off is the packing and unpacking when moving from one house to the other.

I moved to my current house in 2005. I lived in my previous cottage for fourteen years. I decided to move because my sister moved here due to her husband's job moving. Then my mom decided to move. I wanted to live close to the members of my family. So that is why I moved here. I bought a two bedroom house overlooking the river on the edge of a coastal town. My sister bought a five bedroom detached house. My mom bought a two bedroom bungalow. I am hoping to sell my house and buy a bungalow. My toddler son is unable to walk because he is disabled. He is getting really heavy and is challenging to carry. Also I have my baby daughter and would like to give each of my children their own bedrooms.

for the last 5 years i have been moving from one place to another with my husband due to the nature of his work. he was assigned from one town to another and we just stay there for just a year or 2 being the longest... whether we like it or not, we have to. its difficult but i am already used to it!

I had to move in the middle of the semester because they "sold" the house I was in... As a result, I am still suffering financially and wouldn't be going to school if it wasn't for the help I've received from family and friends. Later, I've discovered that they moved me out so they could move a family member in. So bogus.

I moved halfway across the country a little over a year ago. I had my own business, and it was doing great, but working all the time stressed me out too much and burnt me out. So after I went bankrupt I decided I neededa huge change. My best friend had moved out to Colorado from Pennsylvania the year before, and I went out there a few times and like it. So I moved. It sucks not knowing amybody, and having left a decent job to find nothing out here is frustrating, but I love being able to go up in the mountains anytime. But enough of me, I'm sorry to hear about your misfortunes. I know how frustrating life can be. And unfortunately I have no advice. Good luck.

Hi, arvintot. The reasons that we have moved out of our home is because of issues with the landlord. It is always this. They don't want to fix anything they just want the rent money. Another reason is because we did not have an hot water heater in our apartment and the manager failed to put one in because she was not receiving the rent money from us on time. We have gotten evicted three times while we was in our own place. And twice from staying in a motel. It was awful! It is never fun to move from place to place. I hope that your situation gets better. You are not the only one that has moved constantly before. I have moved almost 10 times in my life. Or 20..

We move every three months or so. My wife is a travel nurse and she takes a new assignment every three months. Sometimes she extends and we stay a little longer but most of the time its three months and we are off on a new adventure. We home school our kids, we've been to FL, NM, CO, OK, CA and TX.

Well, one of my reasons being shifting or moving from one house to the other is because of the transfer of my father on job from one place to another so that means we go all together but that's not very often!!
