To the Parents Heading to College Move-In
Originally published by the Stacey Rogers Real Estate Group. Read the original article on our website.
There are so many different kinds of moves in life.
First homes. Growing families. Dream homes. Downsizing after retirement.
But there’s one move that feels a little different: helping your own child leave home for college.
College move-in is exciting because you know they’re ready. You’ve watched them work toward this moment, and you can’t wait to see what comes next.
But as a parent, you may not feel quite as ready as they are.

If this is your family’s season, give yourself permission to feel all of it. Take the pictures, soak up the phone calls and visits home, and be proud of the person you’ve raised.
And for some families, college brings another decision, too: where are they going to live?
If your student plans to stay in the same city for several years, purchasing a home or condo can be worth exploring. Some families choose to purchase a property their student can live in, potentially add roommates, and eventually hold onto as an investment.
There’s no one-size-fits-all answer, but if your student is headed to Texas Tech or another college in the Lubbock area, our team would be happy to help you look at the options.
Most importantly, remember that sending your child off to college isn’t the end of a chapter. It’s the beginning of a new one — for both of you. ❤️
