Done it a few times at multiple scales. The challenges are mostly how to deal with crap you think you need and then don’t.
First, shed as much as you possibly can. Then shed more. If you genuinely can’t move all your stuff yourself, then suddenly you have added layers of logistics and expenses.
Second, I agree with finding a sublet or AirBnB for a landing place. The worst mistake I ever made was renting a place sight unseen. The only places that desperate for tenants are one’s that will make it hard to leave. 3 months in a shithole while you learn the right neighborhood and find a good place is with it long term.
