Our current lease is up at the end of next month, so we were wondering how much our apartment complex would raise our rate. We were a little worried that they would raise it so much that it would force us to move somewhere a little cheaper. Then, sometime last week, we received a flyer that said if we renewed our lease before October 31st, that they would honor our current rental rate!
So, today we renewed our lease for 11 months. We were planning on doing a 12 month lease and pointed out the error to the lady completing our paperwork, but I don't think she knew what the heck she was doing and tried to just gloss over the error saying it was "confusing." So, whatever, we got an 11 month lease that will be up at the end of next October. I'd be pretty surprised if they let us renew at our current rate next year too, so we may have to look elsewhere next year. But for now, I'm really excited that we get to stay in our apartment at our current rate.
We moved to Seattle in February 2008 and shared blog posts and photos during our first few years in Seattle.

I felt like our lease was expensive when we signed it the first time, but now that the going rate for this building is a lot higher and we still get our old rate, I feel like we have a good deal.
I guess we'll have to wait until next year to move closer to the grocery store.
maybe in that time a grocery store will move in.
