So- we (the ex and I) had decided to stay in this apartment month to month until Feb and then get a two bedroom and remain roommates. I get a letter from the management company that they expect an extra $50 a month if you don't sign a new 12 month lease. If you do- rent goes down from our current $905 to $885- which is actually what we pay for rent and the $905 is the extra $20 for my parking spot. THEN- they have an ad on Craigslist for an apartment here for $775 a month. WTF!! So- you lose good people- who pay rent on time and are quiet and have never had any complaints. This doesn't make any business sense to me- as they have had several apartments sitting empty. I am going to talk to the on-site managers and see what the deal is. Oh- the ad also says the unit has a D/W and a fireplace...ours doesn't...
SO- I hate the thought of moving around the holidays- which given my line of work- start Nov 1st. But it looks like the universe is forcing my hand.
Seattle folks- if you know of any 2 bedroom, cat friendly apartments that are for rent- let me know.

And then people wonder why so many businesses are going under.
Plenty of businesses while hurting for new business are seemingly sticking it to the business they actually have for the simple reason of: they can.
Good luck getting a better, cheaper place. Sometimes life's inconveniences are just the Gods' way of nudging us, sometimes kicking us into a new direction we need to go.
