My employer relocated me last summer, from the US East Coast to the Midwest (12h drive) and yes, we brought a good 150 plants with us. My old house was a rowhome but had great light in 2 of the bedrooms - south western exposure and no big trees nearby. We started using grow lights in other rooms because there was very little natural light and plants were getting leggy and ugly, in some cases the tops were bending over because the stalks weren't thick enough to support the weight. Most succulents turn these beautiful shades of orange, red and purple when provided enough light so we try to keep them that way. Grow lights also help keep the growth dense and even (internodal length and leaf size) throughout the seasons.
Our 'new to us' house has terrible natural light due to a bunch of 100 yr old Hackberry trees in the neighbors' yards and our own that is 2-3m from the house. None of them appear to have ever been cut back.
For grow lights we buy the screw in LED type of bulb. LEDs all last relatively the same amount of time, so we shop for the most intense and broadest spectrum for a certain cost (the husband buys them on Amazon). We've got a bunch of $5 architect desk lamps from Ikea and I think most of the timers are from Ikea too. Some of our plant nerd buddies use the type of lights in the link below. Last year the husband rigged this free standing fabric closet with 2 bulbs and rope lights (all grow lights) that stayed in the basement.
