I would greatly appreciate your opinion with my family's current situation. We currently live in the Columbus, Ohio area and are relocating to Raleigh with my husband's company. He has already started his new job, and has been traveling during the week while we've remained in our home - which (argh) has not yet sold.
We are now thinking that we will go ahead and move to the North Raleigh area (we've been looking at homes in WF and NR) into a temp. housing apt. so that our daughter (1st grade) can start school in the Wake County system. I realize that it is a high probability that she will, at some point, have to change schools when we finally sell our home and buy a home - but my thoughts at this point are, it would be better for her to be in the system and curriculum, rather than possibly start here in OH (traditional calendar only offered here) and then move to Wake County and have to adjust.
His company offers a couple of different furnished apts. there - (Thornhill on Plumleaf Road and Camden Crest on Summit Manor Lane).
Has anyone been in this particular situation and, if so, do you have any words of wisdom for me? I am trying to gather information now, b/c I am sure there are issues or situations that could arise that I have not thought of.
I have helped clients in similar situations who have been relocated. The key for them was knowing that school reallocation is inevitable. Once they came to terms with that, they chose a school that they would like their child to be in. Then they chose an apartment complex serviced by that school.
When they were ready to buy and they really liked the area and the school, they looked for a house allocated to that school.
I also had clients who looked to buy else where once they got familiar with the area as well as their commute times to work.
