** UPDATE**

Ok, so here's what's going on.  Sounds like this buyer is going to accept my offer....... BUT she was told by her apt manager that she could break her lease, and then the asst manager told her not w/o a huge cost.  So she was to f/u w/the manager she originally spoke to (who wasn't in over the wknd) and get an answer today and then I'd know something.

I'm hoping to hear something w/in the next few hours.  We would have to go over this wknd and get some stuff (get a trailer) and bring over to a storage unit/our house.  Then I'd have to be out by Sat 11/22 at 9am.   I'd go over that Thurs evening, take Fri off and have movers and then Brad would come over and help me.  It's just that I'd have to get all this in place now and need to know something.

So I'm asking all of you to REALLY PRAY HARD.  This would be a big help for us, burden off our shoulders and so send some of that nestie love/dust!!!!

Thanks girls!!!!!

Re: ** UPDATE**

  • Tell that asst. manager to get off of his power trip and let that chica out of that lease!!!

    I am sending prayers up for you right now!!!!!!!

    Ditto!  It's going to work out!

  • Here's hoping that it all works out!  Good luck and sending prayers!
  • I hope everything works out for you, and soon!  I'm sending tons of good dust your way!
  • I know girls, I feel like calling the mngr myself - HELLO, you'll get another renter - I need to freakin sell this place and she loves it!!!!! 

    My agent was like, stay by the phone, I'm feeling good about it.

    Me too, but am putting it in God's hands........

    keep yall posted!!!

    ** update ** - ok so apparently this complex wants to charge this chick a fee for breaking the lease and her monthly rent (EVEN if someone leases her apt after she would leave) until her lease is up (June next year).  CRAZY!!!!  So we don't know if you can legally do that b/c I've heard that you can't collect on a lease if you just leave (and just pay one month fee).  Not to mention they have a waiting list for this complex a mile long - WTH!?!?!?  So my agent is SERIOUSLY looking into this and the other agent is looking at this chick's lease............ ugh drama.

  • sending my thoughts and prayers your way that everything goes according to plan... :)

     

  • That doesn't sound right. I have never heard of any apt complex charging a monthly rent even if you don't live there.  It sounds like their trying to rob that poor girl blind!  I'll be praying and sending you good luck vibes. :)
    Siggy coming soon....
  • Ah!  I was super excited and then saw that the apt ppl are beint buttheads!  I really hope it works out for you!!!!
  • Keeping my fingers crossed!! She needs to tell the asst manager to shove it!! Keep us posted!

  • That is one issue we ran into when we were recently looking to buy a house.  The apartment manager said they didn't have a "buy-out", if you move out then you either have to keep paying the rent by the month or pay a lump sum equal to the rest of your lease. 

    It sucks, but I guess that's the way it goes.  The seller had offered to take over our lease if we had bought the house we were looking at, but we changed our minds with the economy being so wishy washy right now.

  • I have NEVER heard of this, and used to rent (although it was a while ago).  The thing is they have a waiting list a mile long.  So it's not like they can't find renters and it's in freaking BUCKHEAD!!!!  Where everyone wants to be.

    ugh, I might have to crawl in a corner and cry.

    She doesn't think she was disclosed this info so they are checking her lease.

  • Girl I am so glad things are moving forward for you! Good luck and I'm praying things move quickly!

  • Saying a prayer for you dear! I completely understand what you are going through. SH and I have been trying to sell our house for a while and ran into a similar situation. It fell through because of financing 3 days before we were to close. Still praying for a buyer here. I feel your pain. Good luck!
  • We hadn't heard about this either! We thought we could just break the lease and pay a fee or something, but apparently not.  A girl I work with even said there was a clause in her lease that said if you buy a house then they will let you out of it.  That's what prompted us to call and see what our policy was here.  I'm really really hoping/praying that everything works out for you!!!

    yeah, we've had this on the market for over 20 months now.  It's awful in ATL.  And they keep building condos.  I am really just praying this works out b/c I'm so tired of paying 2 mortgages and I want a new house!!!

    I feel for yall too, hope you find a buyer too!!!

  • Sending all my good vibes your way!

  • Could you help out the girl... say, you'll pay half of the fee/rent that it will cost her to break her lease? (Or, have your realtor or her realtor call the landlord to see if something could be worked out directly with the company?)

    If it meant lowering the price a few thousand more in order to sell the condo it might be worth it.

    I bet there are fees to break out of the lease but I hope it works out!
