ಗೃಹಪ್ರವೇಶ
Gruhapravesha marks the moment a house becomes a home. The ceremony begins with Ganapati pooja to clear obstacles, followed by punyahavachana to purify the premises, Vaastu shanti to settle the vaastu purusha, and kalasha sthapana at the entrance. The family then enters with the right foot first, carrying the kalasha, and milk is boiled on the new stove until it overflows — the sign of abundance entering the house.

Yes. A shorter form — Ganapati pooja, punyahavachana and kalasha sthapana followed by the milk boiling — is customary when moving into a rented home.
No. What matters is that the kitchen is usable for the first cooking. Furnishing can continue afterwards.
Most gruhapravesha muhurtas fall in the early morning, often between 6:00 and 9:00 AM. The exact window is confirmed when the date is fixed.
