We’ve just received notice from our property manager that our rent will be increasing by $20 per week once our lease runs out on November 17. What to do, what to do?
The rental agency wants us to advise them of our intentions by October 20th - one week from now - even though we don’t have to give notice of moving out until two weeks before the lease is up.
Moving is definitely an option, and luckily with my final exams on November 8, 14 and 15, I at least wouldn’t have to worry about the lengthy process of resettling while I still had an exam pending. Downside is that we would have to have found a place before the 17th, which is a long process and right during exams.
UPDATE:I’m breaking my self-imposed gag order for two things. First, this bit of news which will be of interest mainly to my family about our living situation, first written last Thursday. The update, and hence post, is that we’re looking at a 2-bedroom unit tonight that is about 5 minutes from where we are now. The second thing is the polls in the post below. I closed both polls after overwhelming respondents - okay, two of the three votes - detested the flash puzzle. Consequently the puzzle has also been removed so it doesn’t keep loading each time someone comes to the page. That is all - still working on assignments.

Sorry I missed the vote.
Good luck on the exams, Dave.
moving after exams is good. If you/Kate need assistance in the lead-up to moving, so that you can pass your exams without stressing about stuff, let me know. I hate your stairs, but I’ll do my best :>
Go dave go!
thanks Michael, thanks Suzanne, thanks Tangerine…
one assignment left to write…long overdue…3000 words
topic? “Were the Merovingians really the do-nothing kings?’
Ay.
this leads me to the question… what the hell are you studying? Who are the Merovingians when they’re at home?
