ugh-it gets worse and worse...

So we found our dream apartment!  Gorgeous and perfect, but not available for two months.  The owner said great, I'll send the paprs over and we'll see you in two months.  Nothing was signed, however. 

So we found a cat friendly furnished sublet.  We signed the lease.  Then the owner of the apartment e-mails and says, whoops- it might not be available in two months, she won't know until Jan. 30th.  Now we might be stuck with a sublet we don't want or need.  DH is beside himself and wants to stay here (if we can get out of the sublet that is!) and wait to see what happens with our 'dream " apartment.  I kind of want to scrap the whole thing and take another place we saw yesterday.  It was fine, a tiny living room, but otherwise a solid choice.  I think my head might explode.  I hate New York Real estate.

  • Things will soon fall into place--stay positive! Can't wait to hear to hear the good news soon enough!
  • Thanks ladies.  We got out of the sublet, thank heavens.  That was a huge relief!  We are going to wait until Jan.30th, and pray the other apartment still works out.  In the meantime, we keep looking...I feel so much better today.  No use crying over spilled apartments.  If it doesn't become available, so be it.  It was gorgeous though, the rental holy grail really.  You just don't see rentals like this one... dare to dream.  Isn't it crazy how apartment hunting in New York is always so horrible and exciting all at once?  That perfect place might be there waiting for you, if you can find it...
  • I completely agree! It's so hard but I try not to look at places mid-lease. It makes me want to move now because I always see 'the place of my dreams' when we are not ready to move.

    I really hope it works out for you - and really glad you got the sublet! at least you have that to resolve the immediate apartment woes. good luck and fingers are crossed for you!!
