Pinkelbows, I can't add much to what Catsindenver has already said, but welcome to the Pet Talk forum.
When you get into your new home, I suggest that you keep your new kitty separated from the others in a room by himself. This is so the others can get used to his being around and also to give him time to get over his Upper Respitory Infection (URI). Also, it is good to give your pride some special cat food for their introduction into the new apartment. Perhaps some tuna cat dinner -some treat that they are not used to. Your vet will prescribe some meds for this URI condition, (probably Amoxycillin and/ or terramycin) . URI is contageous, therefore it is necessary to keep him separated from the others. He should be over it in about a week at the most. After that, the others will have had time to get used to his scent and will be more likely to accept him into the pride. Keep us posted on his recovery and their introductory progress.
