Kevin, that advice is spot on. :y115:
And so the saga ends..............I'M in babyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!!!! I haven't got the key only because the real estate agent needed to make a few for the woman who's renting the main house and myself. But i am indeed in. In a couple days i get the keys and can start moving stuff in. as for the old place, i called the land management woman today and told her i found a place and would be out on the 31st. she was VERY relieved because she thought i was going to go off on her. But i was calm, and the fact she was so relieved she gave me a big "yes" when i asked if i could leave some things and deal with them during the first week or 2 of november. So everything went smooth and the only thing left is a lot of hard work. Oh, and they know the apt is really run down, but they have no issues with that because i've complained to them forever that they have never renewed anything for me.
I gotta tell you, i couldn't have found a better place and a better person to lease from. She is leasing the house herself, but she is subletting or however thats spelled, to me. She is so friggin nice it's scary. She already told me she's going to get a BBQ for her deck and i could come up and use it any time ! She told me i could use 1/2 the garage for my bike. Then i asked if i could keep my tools in there she said ok. Then the topper was when she mentioned something about when i get a washer and dryer (there are hookups in my place) and i told her i wasn't going to because even if i stay the whole 2 years thats not long enough to warrant buying them. So then she tells me i can use the ones in the garage !! And that was about the only bummer....having to go to a Laundromat once a week. But not anymore ! i swear to god, i think someone was looking out for me on this one. Maybe my mother, i dunno. But i NEVER have this sorta luck. And at this time of my life you have no idea how bad i needed it.

Great news Dale, seems like she is really going out of her way to make you feel welcome. Glad you will have the use of the garage for your bike and tools that is a big plus. :y115:
you ain't just a whistlin' dixie. If not for that i would have had to keep it in my sister's garage 12 miles or so away. that would have meant no riding to work, and much fewer joy rides in general. But i gotta tell ya, i think i'm even happier about her letting me use the washer/dryer. Otherwise every weekend i'd have to spend a couple hours at a friggin Laundromat. i can think of better ways to spend a saturday.
What a bunch of people here, eh? Its amazing. Every time someone is in a bind, their thread about it generates a ton of posts. try that at any other triumph forum ! You people are the best. I can't figure how that is because i have literally never been to another forum thats like this. Too bad we're all over the globe because a Ttalk group ride would be the best triumph gathering of all time !

Dale we are very lucky that we have such awesome folks here. I tend to look at this forum as a place where good friends stop by just to hang out and chat. We may be a small forum but I think this counts in our favour when it comes to the quality of our members. You are so right about the threads always being active when someone is in a bind. It also helps if you can just have a place to express yourself when you are in a bind.
:y18: to all the good folks here

It strikes me as odd that arbitary eviction is even legal in the USA.
I can't speak for S.A. but in good ole blighty (England) that action would not have been tolerated.
It is almost impossible to evict someone from their appartment there.......... or at least it used to be.

Congratulations, Dale. Prayer works!! :y115: A good, friendly landlady, a garage for your bike, washer/dryer access. and a gorgeous location - you done good!!!
I can't believe i'm even saying this, but now i'm sitting here at work dreading a phone call from her. She emailed me and said please call tomorrow morning. (today) heres the deal...while i was there yesterday she was talking to the real estate lady about a doctor that was wanting my place but she told him it's taken. well, turns out she's also renting a room in the main house, so he was coming over to look at that. But the thing is, she was saying how it's really my place he wanted. i left last nite just as he was walking in.
You probably know what i'm thinking here....being a doctor he obviously can afford a lot more than they asked me for. I'm afraid he offered her a lot more and she's going to now tell me that he's got my place and ask if i want a room in the house. If this is the case i'm out. The nerves have already started big time. I feel sick, and i'm sitting here dreading this phone call. i hope im wrong, but all the pieces of the puzzle fit, and like i said i never get this lucky. i want the phone to ring asap. i'm afraid of it, but i gotta know before i have a friggin heart attack !

Keep us posted!
Wow it does not seem like she can back out of the deal she made with you now. Holding thumbs once again :y18:
Yeah, but i can't pull that on her then have to live with her after making her hate me. Plus after my lease was up she'd surely kick me out. It would be an option in a rent control area where you're moving into a apt where the person you had to call on the issue wasn't living there. But in a non rent control area they can do nearly anything they want including boot you out for any number of reason.
still waiting for the call back almost an hour and a 1/2 later. This is friggin killing me. I went from feeling sick to feeling normal again last nite, then right back to sick. One way or another i cannot wait till this is all over.

The wait is not fun!
Still nothing :tongue:
Nope. She said call "early in the morning". I called and left a message at 7am and it's now 9:30. I gotta figure she's trying to get up the balls to call and tell me. I can't figure what else it could be.
Like Gary said, I would strongly suggest you remind her that you have a verbal agreement. She is the one being nasty....not you. You don't have to make any threats or anything, but just remind her that it is unethical to make a verbal agreement, and you will possibly have to discuss this with your attorney......
To put it more bluntly....that sucks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
