When a friend or family member moves into a new house, it’s customary to bring a small gift to celebrate the achievement. You can bring the gift to a housewarming party or when you visit their new home for the first time.
The average price range for a housewarming gift is between $20 and $50, although you can spend more on those you have a close relationship with. To find the perfect gift, consider the recipient’s interests, needs, and lifestyle.
