So my landlord changed Management back in late October. We made the November payment to the previous Management company because we didn't get notified til Nov. 2nd via a letter in the mail. Now the new management told us to withhold payment until he verified we paid the previous rent and he would take off the "late fees" in our new account. Since then we have not received word. Last time was Dec. 18th saying they couldn't find any record of a new lease that we signed with the previous management but that we could sign a new one in January. Technically our lease was up the end of January. We still have no word from them, I have rent saved up for the past 3 months but we're looking at moving out with my in laws until summer or sooner to help save and pay off rent. So my thoughts are: -Move out and don't say a word and take my 3 months rent, granted they will be keeping our last months rent and the deposit which is the same amount. They'll technically only be out one months rent. I know they can take us to court, but will it affect our credit? -Notify them, pay them and hope we get our deposit back. Granted the apartment isn't in bad shape from us living here, the carpet took the most beating. We've been living here for close to 4 years. And I will say the apartment seems to have lots of structural problems, we believe there to be mold, rotted window frames and leaking in the roof. What would y'all do? Or have you ever broken a lease and how did it affect you? We're hoping by Summer we can get our own house so no more renting! Thanks ♥️
