Being a good tenant is a good practice but know where the balance is. You are paying for a product and there’s expectations on both sides. Pay on time, do everything in writing, and leave it better than you found it. Second tip from the budget thrifters like me, only get what you need. Moving sucks and spending money you don’t have sucks. Good luck!!! Living away from family can be challenging but learning independence is something some people never do.

Oh and if you take out a credit card for the first time, do it with a trusted accountability partner (parent, financially responsible family member, trusted friend) who can keep you on the tracks for the first year. 27% interest takes people down faster than you can believe.
