Moving to Apartment

Yesterday, my friend called me asking me to help a lady moving home, who has just divorced her husband. She was planning to move from a free government-funded apartment to a new apartment where she needed to pay $800 a month, and the government paid another $600.

eliminating "to" better describes that it is someone else that is moving, and they are moving from one apartment to another apartment. Alternatively, "Moving to a New Apartment" could still keep the word "to" but fixes the awkwardness of a missing indefinite article (a/an).

"asking me" is correct in speech, but "to ask me" feels more correct in writing. "moving home" usually means moving back home after living elsewhere for awhile. "Moving house" means moving from any house to another house.
