[QUOTE="GoingNorth, post: 652804, member: 1963"] Well, I spent most of the day researching and talking to apt complex managers at various locations from the Southern Milwaukee Suburbs South to the state line with IL. I found that the state line isn't going to work as those areas have become bedroom communities of Chicago and the rents are priced accordingly. I did find several very nice complexes in suburbs of Milwaukee, spoke with the managers for details, was emailed brochures, and have gone through the initial application process and been approved and put on a wait list for openings at the end of the summer. All that would remain to be done once I actually sell the place and choose a complex and apartment would be the credit check and criminal background check (and payment of fees for same) I did verify with all the managers that my FICO score is high enough that the credit check is a mere formality but still has to be done. I don't have to worry about the criminal check as I have a clean record. So, I will be staying with my friends which promises to be interesting,to say the least, as they refuse to work out a formal financial "rent" agreement and just told me to pay whatever I think is fair. So now I have to find out what a room with kitchen privileges goes for in Milwaukee and take it from there, I guess. The logistics become mind-boggling the more I think about this. I worry about Thomas and Squeaky as they really want to see them integrated into the household as opposed to living in one room. Three small dogs and one rather squirrely senior cat. Should be interesting, given that both Thomas and Squeaky are a bit on the weird side themselves. [/QUOTE]
