2 Set a budget for how much you can afford to spend each month on your Dallas apartment
Furnishing an apartment can be so expensive especially if you buy everything outright in the first month. Many people don’t have that kind of cash on hand so it makes more sense to set aside money each month for an entire furnished apartment. Take a look at what items you marked as important on the list above. Next to that write down how much money you have available each month for living expenses. After the cost of rent, utilities, gas, and food what’s left? How much of that are you willing to spend to feel comfortable and relaxed in your home?
