So I finally got this stupid apartment complex that I'm trying to move to respond to me. Had a couple questions on the lease, but the most important was that I was supposed to get like 2wks free rent, but the lease didn't show that. They sent me the lease last Wednesday, expecting me to sign within 24-48hrs, while promising to "answer my questions promptly" but then it took them 4-5 biz days to get back to me. I emailed, called, and texted every day. I told them that I'm not signing anything until I get my questions answered. I was getting worried as I already put down a small deposit.

When they called today, I was half expecting to have to argue with them, but luckily the leasing specialist said "Sorry about that; I've sent you a new lease with the concession." And it was there. Still need to review this new lease in its entirety, in case they added anything that wasn't in the first lease. Which has happened to me before elsewhere; I had the apt managers redo a lease twice, because they kept messing it up. Only signed it on the third try. Don't know if they were incompetent or trying to pull as fast on me; honestly, probably the first given how that place was run. Anyway, always read over your entire lease, even if they just corrected one little thing.

Hopefully get this signed by Friday. Once this is finished, I'll be able to book a truck and fly some of my family out to help me.
