I'm wanting to move out from my parents house but I just wondered what it costs on average, from rent to bills and what sort of bills come in monthly and what come in quarterly. It would really help to see if i could afford to do it. Many thanks.

I am from the uk and Ive been looking about 1-2bedroom flats seem to be about the same price it ranges from about £400-550 for an average flat round here.
As a 20yr old looking to move in by herself is £2000 a realistic budget or are you scaring me off :(

Depends where you live of course, I'm not talking cities here.
One bed flat would be about £550 per month. You have utility bills on top, electric,gas,contents insurance, council tax (well over £1,000 per annum), phone etc. It would be much cheaper to house share or rent a room. A room would be about £75 per week with no extra overheads.
You would need to put down a months rent in advance as a deposit.

Well all bills could be monthly if you arrange direct debits. All the utilities, gas. ,elec,water, and phone and broadband and TV can be paid monrhly.. Also council tax.. and insurances... A lot depends on the property you rent.. but in total you might need £1000 to £1100 a month. So to live comfortably and to run a car you need a salary of net £2000 a month/ at least...

I live in NJ and my rent alone for a 2 bdrm. is $1300.00 a month. For one month for a family of three it costs me approx. $2700.00 a month to run a household and that's barely keeping my bills current. What you can do is get your phone book and look under apartment rentals. You can call them and ask them what the approx. monthly rent, etc. may run. Don't forget, when you rent there are yearly increases that you must budget for. If I were you, if you don't have at least $2500.00 to $3000.00(as long as you are single, more if you have a family) a month to survive, don't move out. I know this is high, but you should put money away in case of job loss, lose a car in an accident, illness, etc.

you will oftentimes sign a one million three hundred and sixty 5 days hire. you will make funds in this hire on a month-to-month foundation. it incredibly is a three hundred and sixty 5 days to a minimum of three hundred and sixty 5 days term with maximum leasing workplaces. it incredibly is lots different once you're renting privately. you may sign a settlement affirming you're a month to month tenant, or a week to week tenant. those rentals, besides the undeniable fact that, are extremely uncommon. tutor your self now. study the owner/tenant statutes of your state, and function your father and mom help you if there are sections of the statutes you do no longer understand. those are to guard you. The regulations are very almost consistently on your facet except you do no longer pay your hire.

As of right now assume you ARE renting from your parents. Pay them MARKET rent. Pay them utilities(gas, electric, water, cable etc). Pay for your own food and other expenses. Then you be able to figure out if you can actually afford to move out.

well you have to normally pay one month's rent in advance,and monthly thereafter
then you have your
gas, electricty,you could pay this monthly by direct debit,although you are billed quarterly,and finally your rates for water, sewage etc: and then your shopping.
look in your local papers for rental prices in your area
in my area, a one bed flat is around £500 per month,in london,expect to pay more
