I want to find a new rental that has more than two power sockets. I have to give one months notice; however, all of the ads I look at are available within that same month so asking them if I can move in one and a half months from now never works.
How do you all deal with this? Give one months notice and hope you find a place?

Well, I own, but what I would do is go ahead and rent the new place and then give notice on the old place. You’ll wind up paying rent on two places for that month, but on the upside your move won’t need to be a chaotic rush.
I’ve done this a couple of times and I’d say if you can afford it, it’s definitely worth it. But renting often leaves you in a tight financial situation so it’s not often realistic to be able to do it.
Ask your current place if you can switch to a month to month plan while you lock down a new location
Will be though to avoid having to cover both places for a week or two at first
What country?
Canada, Vancouver. RIP me
Wow, worst case scenario.
I used to manage buildings for a little bit.
I tell people all the time the best bet is to phone different apartment management places, and speak to their leasing team… They will have a complete inventory of what is available, who has sent notice that they are moving and when, etc
Basically put those people to work for you!
Usually don’t have to give any notice if it’s at the end of your lease renewal period
Yep, they can claim a “late renewal fee” or whatever if you don’t renew in their timeframe but the worst they can do outside of that is give you a bad reference for not giving them a notice as far as I know… ianal
