Lease extension?
By esm
I recently became fortunate enough to purchase my first home. My lease ended at the end of April, but my home will not be ready until the end of June. I went to my rental office and signed a 2 month extention and explained that I really needed 3 months. I was told that it wasn’t a problem and to go ahead and write it on the top of the form and explain why I needed to stay the extra month. I called the office to confirm that I still had the extra month available to move. I was told “no” and that I had to be out the end of May. I can’t move at this point and do not want to sign another 2 month extention. I don’t believe they can force me out, at least not right away. I would like to know if they can change the locks on my door now that I no longer have a signed lease. I’ll gladly pay rent for one month. I suppose if they deposit my check then that would be binding. If they don’t deposit the check or I don’t sign another extention I fear I will come home to a locked apartment. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
