I’ll try to keep this brief. Our lease ends at the end of this month, APRIL. my wife and I have not signed anything to renew any lease whatsoever. We submitted our notice on April 3rd and our last will be May 31st.
They are telling me that per our “contract” that we have to pay for the full month of JUNE as well. Even though our actual contract ends April 30th. And we are doing a month to month for May (this is what happens when you don’t sign or renew the lease) So we have not signed a new contract or agreed to anything, we gave a move out notice, and they’re telling us no.
I also have all documents and “receipts” to back up this claim.

In my experience it’s much less grassroots than the article makes it sound: these are well established organisations, they have specialised lawyers on the payroll, and for a yearly fee you get the right to consult them in cases like this one. And when the case is clear enough they will get active on your behalf.
Again, I hope something like that is an option where you live.
