HomeMy WebLinkAboutThe Goderich Signal-Star, 1973-09-20, Page 38The romantic notion that a couple's first home
is perfect just because they will be living
there is just that — a romantic notion.
A Cot of thought, and question asking must
precede any romantic notions about a new
house or apartment.
First, whatever type of dwelling is chosen, a
couple must consider' their own personal size
needs. Because the first year of marriage in-
volves a tremendous readjustment for two
people, it is better not to start out in a confined
space like 'a studio apartment.
EVEN THOUGH these two people are all of a
sudden living together, they are still separate
persons with individual hobbies and interests.
So consider buying a house or renting ah
apartment which has at. least one ''extra"
room to get lost in.
Important things. to search tor in a prospective
new domain include: enough electrical outlets
in the kitchen and bathroom especially; stor-
age space, closets within the domain and other
spaces in say, a basement and Laundry facil-
ities.
Also,a thorough°investigation of the policys of
the apartment manager is necessary for happi-
ness in a new home. Check to see what his
policies are'. on pets and
peddlers, painting

their future which is concerned t Is
A couple planning to marry should
start to'
look for a place to live about three months -
before their wedding. At that time it is important
that the couple gets the measurements of the
rooms in which they,j1 be living so that furni-
ture and rugs, if necessary, can be ordered
accordingly. -
It may sound silly, but look at your new abode
one time at night before you make the con-
tract for it final. Are the hallways well -lit? Are
the fixtures that are there supplied with light -
bulbs?
Happy House hunting!
