Things to consider when moving out on your own

2. What kind of environment do you want to live in?
3. Do you have or want a pet?
4. Do you need a bank account?

Be wary of Scams

1. They are out of town in another city.
2. You have to drive by the house and not see inside.
3. You can mail them the money and haven't met them in person.
4. Get receipts for all payments.
