I WAS GIVEN A VERBAL QUOTE OF $650 FOR A RENTAL UNIT. WHEN I BROUGHT THE APPLICATION AND CHECK TO THE OFFICE THE LADY INFORMED ME THAT HER BOSS SAID I COULD HAVE IT AT THAT PRICE IF I PAID THE MONTHLY ASSOCIATION FEE OF $210. i INFORMED HER THAT IS NOT THE QUOTE SHE HERSELF GAVE ME AND THAT I WANTED TO SPEAK WITH HER BOSS. IT TOOK ALL DAY OF ME CALLING HER BACK TO GET AN ANSWER AND SHE SAID HER BOSS WOULD GIVE ME THE UNIT FOR $825. IS A VERBAL AGREEMENT BINDING? IS THERE ANYTHING LEGALY I CAN DO? I ALREADY TURNED IN MY NOTICE WITH MY PRESENT LANDLORD WHICH PUTS ME IN A BIND.
A lease generally has to be in writing. In addition, even if you were going to sue, the time frame for suing would take much longer than you appear able to wait to get a new unit. Good luck.
