Feh, Jesse. I hope you find something easily.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
One month seems like it would be violating some kind of housing laws if we're not talking about squatters or people behind on their rent.
While it totally sucks having to find a place and move when you aren't choosing that, why does it seem illegal? I mean, it's the basis of month-to-month, right? The same as, if Jesse *wanted* to move, she would only have had to give 30 days notice, no?
But it sucks to have to find a new place and move. It really does.
For a while, before things crashed, they were renovating apts all over my complex and I was always worried they'd do so many that I'd get booted so they could do mine too.
I'm sorry the letter was bad news, Jesse.
I was thinking in terms of what Typo Boy mentioned, where it can take more than a month to legally evict a resident who's not in good standing. I mean, I guess I see them being able to inform you that the month you just paid for will be your last, but legally enforcing the move-out date seems more of a gray area.
I don't know if they would actually come in on 10/31 and throw my stuff on the street, but I figure I'll talk to them about it first.
Month to month is sort of handshakey. I don't think they'll throw your stuff on the 31st, either, Jesse, but I would talk to them as soon as possible just to be clear on what happens if you can't find a place right away or whatever.
I should really go out to look at apartments, but I'm not mentally ready! Feh.
From experience, I can tell you that evicting a tenant takes at least three months, and that was for someone who didn't fight us in court, she just didn't leave (or pay the $20k she owed in maintenance fees).
Still, not the ideal way to go.
Glad to hear the good news about your mom, Frank. May she continue to improve.
And Jesse, I'm sorry about the apartment situation. All speedy perfect-place-finding-ma to you.
Yay, Frank!
I spent the last half hour on PetFinder and it's all Perkins's fault.
