Miss Horror Story #2 and ONE WEEK!
Horror story # 2:
{refer to horror story # 1, if you are confused about this sequence.}
I want to first of all say that this story lacks A LOT of empathy. And sympathy, as well...
We filled out a "application" [which we thought was a contract] for an apartment almost 2 months ago. The apartment was going to be great and I hadn't stopped envisioning it since that day. About 3 weeks about, we find out that it was just an application, not a contract. I freaked basically. About every other day since then, I've been in tears about this apartment, trying to get a hold of this guy. I left it up to Nephi and he did everything he could but this was one of the WORST services I have ever worked with.
We would call him, and he would email maybe 3-4 days later with a response, but never fully answering our questions. He asked for basically all our personal financial information, and we got it to him the same day, but still took him FOREVER to get back to us. Even with us basically pleading for some sort of answer, because we were getting married in 3 weeks...nothing. I sent him my resume, a separate application with my information only and I even informed him of my full-ride scholarship next semester. Still, we were a *risk to them. Maybe because my parents aren't paying my rent? ( currently, sarcasm is dripping from my lips.) Finally, one day, after getting out of the temple, Nephi told me he called asking for our financial aid information and I LOST IT! I balled and balled and felt so hopeless. I don't get it. This guy is r i d i c u l o u s. I felt like no one involved was helping us or even cared. So, we decided to look for places on our own. And we did.
Nephi saw a place last week and on Saturday I went and checked out 2 places. It was fun actually. One thing that all these places had in common was, great management. They are a little more expensive (not by much) but their managers are really on top of things. We ended up really interested in this cute basement apartment.
We gave them our application on Sunday night and by Monday afternoon we had talked to the manager and she sent over a lease. We filled it out, sent it back and all we have to do is put down the deposit and we are good to go!
Lesson Learned. I am DONE with unreliable people and BAD service. You missed out dang renters. We are awesome.
I am SO excited. Really. I already feel like it's our home and I get so excited to think that is is going to be Nephi and I's first place together.
*They told us that we were a risk because we don't have "renting experience"...uh, excuse me, but, seriously. I definately had a mouth full to say after I heard that! Good thing Nephi talked to them, not me.
In ONE week, I get to marry this cute boy...
...not for long ;)
