Yeah, your option is to just violate the lease and just stop paying. Usually it's more trouble for the landlord to chase you down than to just rent the place. However, they can report you to the credit agencies. Basically you signed a contract and now you want out of it. Unless you can sweet talk the other party in the contract, you're SOL.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Oh, and I am not ignoring you, PC, so much as avoiding the whole sublet / lease thing. Because I am still not over the trauma of taking over this place.

Yeah, though I imagine that might bite me in the ass when I try to get an apartment in California, right? Grr.

I understand! It sounded traumatic. *hugs*

Sign the lease in California then stop paying. How much is still left on your lease? How many months are they trying to make you pay?

PC, have you thought about offering the new tenants some sort of deal to sublet from you for the months remaining on your lease? IOW, would they take the apt early if they paid 75% and you paid the remaining 25%? Or 50-50? That would be better than paying the whole thing yourself.

Yeah, though I imagine that might bite me in the ass when I try to get an apartment in California, right?It certainly will in the future. When you are getting housing, the one credit thing they *really* will focus on is other housing stuff.

Four months. I'm moving in April, and I'll be staying with family initially until my internship is either extended or turns into a job, which will happen by the end of May, for better or worse.

That's an interesting idea. I just called and told her to offer them that if they don't take the early move-in offer. She's being very nice about it; obviously, she wants to get the apartment rented as well.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Juliana, you need to change your tag soon, before I pilfer the saying you would change it to.

Can I get some ~ma for my ma? She is headed to the hospital as we speak and I'm headed out of town. I feel like such an awful daughter, though I know there is nothing I could really do different even if I were here.
It is more of the same stuff - nothing really new. Which is both comforting and frustrating.
I'm about to leave work to pick up K-Bug for her drive test. I'm not telling her a thing until she is DONE.
I need a new life.
