I don't know what to do....

so they will let us out of our lease- which is really what we want- with our sercurity back

but I paid $2775 to the real estate agent

and $1500 for movers

and I really don't feel like losing all that money- and having to pay it again- we really can't right now- we might have to pay to fix the car

I don't know what to do!

Re: I don't know what to do....

we are going to sue the parking gargage- so the car should be fixed for free- or covered under our insurance- theft

or if the tapes show they didn't take the car- which I doubt- then ford will cover it- b/c this should not have happened at 20K miles ( we already spoke to them)

but there are alot of variables there- and we are stilling waiting on the total damage

it goes back to I feel like we are being treated like we did something wrong

ughhhhh soooo annoying you are dealing with all of this stress.. again I am so sorry Chat Icon
Well, only you guys can make that decision as to what you want to do.. If you really want out then go for it.. can't the realtor work with you on finding you your next place and not take a commission?

If you have the money to burn, I would get out personally.

Maybe you can work a deal with the real estate agent to waive his fee for finding you another apt?

Beth, I would cut my losses and move. I wouldn't feel comfortable living there after all this. I know the outlay of money is difficult but in the big picture, you will be better off.

I agree. I would feel very unsafe staying there, even if it's just for a year.

where will you move to?

it's 100% what we want- but I don't have alot of extra cash right now

I am still owed sercurity from my last apartment- so that's 4 months of sercurty I have laided out right now- almost $10K

this is my forth week of working

I spent a ton of money on stuff for the apartment

I just don't think we can swing it- I never thought they would say ok- but I can't walk away from all the money- this month- next month I could- once jake closes a few more loans

Re: I don't know what to do....

we can't afford to move again unless they hate us that much and want to give us back all the money we spent

I doubt they want us out that bad- but you never know


they are mad that Jake put the letter under peoples doors- I really don't care- we have had alot of people knock on our door and tell us stuff-

the people who are mad- should be more mad about what happened to our car- and not about a peice of paper- I thought this was American no? now my freedom of speech is restricted????

part of me wants to stay just to torture them

But would you be torturing them or would they be torturing you?

Only you can decide which is better? Consider the $ for the movers and agent a loss and move on or live in a building where something like this happened, and their response was not too supportive.

Good luck.

Beth, you will not be torturing anyone unless you intentionally cause trouble, which I hope is something you are not capable of. Cut your losses, and get out of there.

If it were me personally, I would move. I would feel so violated!

Maybe, try negotiating with the real estate agent.

Sorry! Chat Icon

Re: I don't know what to do....

Jake wont move with out getting all our money back from them

so I left the guy a message lets see how much they hate us

all of the people we have met are nice

as much as I want to just pack up and walk away- I don't think we can- not right now- I don't the money to lay out while I wait for all my sercurity deposts back to give another apartment

plus money to another real estate agent- which I would ask him to help us-
but if he didn't- I gave him almost $3K

I am in the minority here, but I wouldn't move. Moving is a royal pain, and very expensive. That is a lot of money to be out. 11 months will go by very fast - especially if you are house hunting in the meantime. Also, everyone will forget about this in about a week.

I agree with this, 11 months will go very quickly and you might even find a house sooner then you thought. Within a month the car incident will be old news to everyone.

I agree with this. I would think of it as more incentive to find a house. I would probably just stay and look for another place to garage the car.
