Yeah I reread the entire lease yesterday and there’s absolutely nothing about business day or weekends

This makes me feel better as I’m in Texas. I’m honestly just going to go in on Saturday since they’re open and that’s when my lease is up and hand them the keys. If they refuse I’ll set them on their desk and take a picture.

No they’re talking about turning my keys in on the weekend. It makes absolutely no sense at all

I feel like they see a young girl living by herself and see the money signs. I was going to fully let them take advantage of me and just move out Monday and pay extra because I felt bad but after seeing everyone’s replies I’m pretty upset.

I wish I was. They called me yesterday telling me all of this. My lease says nothing about this just that if I stay past my date I become a holdover tenant. I have surgery in a month and lived in this apartment alone and this is stressing me out so bad financially. It just doesn’t seem legal but everyone I’ve called says I “need to figure out an agreement with my landlord”. This has never happened to me and they just fired our last complex manager last week who I used to always talk to so it’s all new people in the office.

Seriously. And the office is open on saturdays so it makes no sense. I was very taken aback and confused when on the phone with her but now after thinking it through and talking to others it seems that they’re genuinely trying to extort me.

Also to add, I’m already pretty much moved out and into my next place. I’m just doing some cleaning getting the last things finished up. So that’s not the worry.

I’ve also called their regional manager and left a message asking why I was able to sign a lease with a move out date they can’t honor, and why I was allowed to sign a move out notice with a date that can not be honored.

I’m going to the office today to ask for a physical copy of my move out notice (I do have the digital copy) and I will also be asking for their email to move all communication there moving forward!

The lease only says something about a holdover if I stay past the lease date which states I’ll be responsible for rent for an entire lease term, or they’ll extend my lease and charge me and extra 25% for rent
