I posted last week about the legalities of the apt. complex getting sold and me wanting out of my lease. Since then, I have applied at the new apt. complex I want to move to, filled out forms and turned in app. fees. The new complex (NC) checked my rental history with the current complex (CC)and told me CC wanted copies of the application paperwork between me and NC. I have NOT given 30 days written notice to the CC yet: I was going to do that Friday when I turn in rent. NC told me I should have already given notice since CC could hold up the paperwork because of this. I felt that if I went ahead and turned in notice, I could have been declined by NC and then have no place to live in 30 days. Did I do things in the wrong order? Can CC make things difficult? Please help!
Thanks.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
My response:
I think you were correct in looking out for #1. It's none of NC's business what you do, or don't do, with CC. If you wanted to maintain two apartments, it's none of NC's business. Theoretically, you could have found yourself out on the street and, would it have been NC's "reality" to pay for a temporary dwelling for you? Pose that scenario to them. How were you to know, without any guarantees, whether NC would actually rent to you? You made the correct, and prudent, decision.
