Need some advice... I want to move into my own apartment.?

Personally I would wait until I had about $10,000 in cash reserves,just in case of an unforeseen emergency with the apartment. But that's just my opinion.

Of course you need a job to get qualified to rent. The rule of thumb is that you shouldn't pay more than 25% of your monthly income towards rent, 33% at the most. You also don't want to start out your independent life living paycheck to paycheck because life has a habit of throwing your curve balls that cost money you never budgeted for. I suggest you write down a monthly budget and have at least 3 months in savings before you make the move.

6 months of salary as savings, that's a good rule of thumb.

Do not even think about applying for somewhere with rent in excess of 33% of your salary.

you will need 2-3 months worth of rent just to get the apt incl sec deposit, plus you better have some emergency savings and you better have a written budget that is less than yuor take home income

I agree with you I was thinking $10,000- $15,000 just to be safe.

Thank you.
