It’s not a simple thing are there are precautions you need to take when moving an oven. |
I’ve never heard of this being an issue or something you’d need to consult a rav about. Can you explain more?

Moving the oven also has to do with sheidim.

The problem is not with moving a modern oven, it's with moving a fireplace, furnace , or old fashion oven that has a chimney. You can't close up the chimney.

You can usually have a contractor come to your house and quote you a price, but it sounds like then you need to assume 20-30% more. |
I guess it depends on what you want to do. My kitchen reno will cost me minimum 100k so I’m pushing it off for a few years until I can afford it fully.
As to your original question, I would never in a million years do that, the real question is what you are ok with. I can’t live in construction or any place that is not complete (even if it is complete but not fully organized I have a very very difficult time).
But if you are super chilled and it won’t affect you, then kol hakavod! Go ahead!
I personally don’t understand why you wouldn’t just wait until you can afford the whole thing

A. where the oven is right now is dangerous. It is right at the entrance and people can get chalila into the flame on the stove, or knock down a pot. It just makes no sense that it is there in the first place, and is unsafe. B. I may switch to electric stove where the stove and the oven are separate. So altogether I would have to move it. Is there a safe way to do it, without issues or concerns of Sheidim and the like ( I thought many rabbanim are not concerned with Sheidim these days, and that this is a thing of the past). |
I believe it's from the tzava'ah of R' Yehuda Hachasid. Call your Rav to find out what needs to be done. I have experience with closing windows but not moving ovens so I'd call.
