Can I use the simple present or other tenses in the sentence. Please help me.

" I get ready to move to their new house"

Thanks a lot.

Simple present does not work here. It would mean that you habitually or regularly get ready to move to their house. Use present continuous (progressive):
- I am getting ready to move to their new house.
