Call them and point out the 2 week delay. Tell them you want that extra week to decide. Ask them why the rent increase, you'd love to stay but the increase is pretty hefty. What percentage was it? We've done 2-3% increase for our tenants (I don't agree with it, but it's not my decision). Ask them if they'll do a shorter lease, month to month, 3-6 months. And ask them what your options are if you leave early, can you sublet? Landlords are assholes, but they usually don't like turnover, especially in this market. If I can help at all let me know! Good luck with the new job interview.Kristihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11296337527298305274noreply@blogger.com
