As a request for elaboration: what is a good strategy to move to another city?
The current strategies I am aware of are: 1 .spend 2-5 days house hunting, contract it and move and live there for years. 2. get any temporary place that is reasonably close to the work location. Spend a few month house hunting, and then move to the new permanent home.
Add for people that have to move families is the decision between moving everyone right away and moving alone first and having everyone else follow later. Possibly in alignment with holiday times, end of school year and such.
It depends on how long you expect to live in said city.
I suggest spending some time couch surfing first - it'll let you get a better understanding of possible areas to live in, and start developing friend networks!
