You Just Accepted a Job at Epic. Now What?

You just accepted a job at Epic. Congratulations! Now comes the next question. Where are you going to live?

If you’re moving to the Madison area, there’s a lot to consider. Do you want a walkable neighborhood close to restaurants and coffee shops? A little more space and a bigger yard? Somewhere close to great schools? Or maybe you’re not quite ready to settle down and want an apartment while you get to know the area.

There’s no one right answer. It really comes down to what you want your everyday life to look like.

Get to Know Your Options

Madison is made up of neighborhoods that can feel completely different from one another. And once you start looking outside the city, communities like Verona and the surrounding areas bring even more options.

The best way to figure out what fits is to experience it for yourself. Walk around, grab coffee, check out a restaurant, drive through the neighborhoods, and see what catches your attention.

You might arrive thinking you want one thing and leave realizing something completely different feels like home.

Not Ready to Buy? That’s Okay.

A new job doesn’t necessarily mean you need to buy a house right away.

If you’re still figuring out how long you’ll be in Madison, renting can give you time to settle into your new routine without making a long term commitment. It also gives you the chance to experience different parts of the area before deciding where you want to put down roots.

And when you are ready to buy, you’ll have a much better idea of what you’re looking for.

Make a Weekend Out of It

If you haven’t moved yet, come spend a weekend here.

We can help with hotel accommodations and put together an itinerary based on what matters to you. If you’re ready to start looking at homes, we can schedule showings around the rest of your weekend.

Bring your significant other, your kids, or whoever is making the move with you. We’ve even had families bring the little ones along while we take them around town. We can help coordinate a babysitter when needed, too.

The goal is to make your visit feel less like a scouting trip and more like your first weekend in your new city.

More Than a House

Moving somewhere new means building a life, not just finding an address.

Maybe you want to know where you’ll spend Saturday mornings, find your favorite dinner spot, meet people, take your dog for a walk, or spend a summer afternoon outside. Those details can matter just as much as the number of bedrooms or the size of the garage.

That’s why we focus on the bigger picture. We want to learn what is important to you and help you find the communities, places, and experiences that fit your lifestyle.
