Expulsion

Gah. New landlord is showing my place. Why didn't I get a chance to renew, first? Because he wants to combine #1 and #2 to make a 3-person unit, and assumed I didn't want that. Feh. He might offer me back units if they become free, which they might not. And I don't think they have the central air. He didn't know *I* have central air. So if I plan to be around next year, I need to find a new place. Or find out that he can't legally do this, but I suspect he can.

CLARIFICATIOn: I may not have been clear; "next year" meant academic. My lease into next August is still good, I'm not being booted out in a few weeks. But I can't be here next September, unless I want to seize a 3-person unit. (Which given my 30 m2 is almost tempting... hush, Ai.)

Of course, Bton's market being Aug-Aug, that needn't mean I have months to postpone the problem. After all, the place is being shown now.

OTOH, I got this place in a June, on a day where I saw 3 other apartments in this area, so maybe it's not such a big deal. Still, feh!

sorry to hear it. I wish I had something useful to suggest, but I don't...

The place next door to me is available, and I believe it's up for rent rather than purchase. I can verify if you think looking into a 2-story condo with basement is an option.

It's in Winslow Ridge, on the south side of town, just off Winslow Road, a few blocks east of Henderson. I'd rather not state the specific address in an LJ comment, but I can IM it to you when I get home if it's up for rent or lease rather than purchase - I haven't paid much attention to the sign, but I know the management did some cleanup or repairs recently.

Unfortunately, I just learned that someone has put down a deposit on that unit and is planning to move in. They just haven't removed the sign yet. However, Parker Management has been a pretty good company to work with, so if you want to know more about them, here's their website (http://www.parkermgt.com/index-3.html). They have a list of the apartments available for rent next academic year.

Your place is already almost twice mine. *groans*

Good luck finding a place, your landlord was a bit of an ass not to mention this to you.
