Grant’s direct answer

Grant encourages a KPMG Dallas new hire to contact HomeBase as soon as the offer is accepted, even many months ahead. Neighborhood education and apartment research can begin early, while the search becomes more actionable around 90 days before move-in and serious touring often happens around roughly 70 days out, depending on property availability. When possible, Grant likes recent graduates to move to Dallas two to four weeks before their first day.
