The start of a new year is a time for reflection, renewal, and setting new intentions. If you’ve been considering a change for 2025—perhaps downsizing, embracing a more relaxed lifestyle, or moving to a place that offers a vibrant, supportive community—February & March could be the perfect time to take that first step. Why wait for the spring rush when you can start fresh now?

If you’re looking for a retirement residence or apartment that offers comfort, care, and a sense of belonging, Lanark Lifestyles is the ideal place to call home in 2025. Here’s why earlier on in the year is the best time to make the move:
- A Quiet, Peaceful Transition
While January may feel like a whirlwind with New Year’s resolutions and post-holiday commitments, by February, the pace slows down, giving you the time and space to make thoughtful decisions. The following few months offers a quieter environment to begin your transition without the added pressures of the busy holiday season. With fewer distractions, you can focus on the move, making sure it’s exactly what you want for your next chapter.
- Avoid the Spring Rush
As the weather warms up in the spring, more people start thinking about making a move. This leads to a highly competitive housing market, as many are looking for the same retirement options. February & March offer a sweet spot for making the change before the spring rush. With fewer people moving during this time, you have more flexibility and better chances of securing your ideal space at Lanark Lifestyles.
- More Time to Settle In
Making the transition to a retirement community like Lanark Lifestyles is a big decision. Starting your move after January but before things warm up gives you ample time to settle in before the busier spring and summer months. You’ll be able to get comfortable, explore the community, and begin enjoying the amenities and activities that make Lanark Lifestyles such a wonderful place to live—without feeling rushed.
- Winter Moving Benefits
Though winter isn’t the typical moving season, it offers some distinct advantages for those looking to relocate. Moving costs tend to be lower during the off-peak season, which means you can save money on hiring movers or renting a truck. Additionally, moving services often have greater availability, allowing you to choose your preferred moving dates with more flexibility.
