Our homes are important to us. They are where we make our fondest memories with our closest family and friends. It's no surprise that moving into a new home is an important event. Sending a card when someone you know moves into a new home is a thoughtful gesture. It shows you recognize the importance of the event.

Treat the note you write in this card with the same importance. It should be friendly and congratulatory—it doesn't have to be long or overly sentimental. To help you get the right message across, here are some tips for what to write in a housewarming card:

A new home is something worth celebrating. A message that expresses your excitement and heartfelt congratulations is a classic choice.
