That sucks. My GF and I were also just forced out of our rental cause someone bought it and wanted our floor. Lived in NHV for 14 years, now I’m in West Haven. It’s not too bad here, you might find something affordable, and lots of WH has direct access to NHV.

Check Zillow and Craigslist and all those sites.

Na not this time actually. I was in Edgewood on Pendleton St (the shitty side) and it was just a young Jewish man that bought it to live in it and rent it. Definitely no Yalies in my hood lol

I’m just still pretty sour that my GF and I were kicked out… we really liked the apartment. And we went from having 1200sqft to having 650 sqft :(

why'd he kick you out if he's gonna keep renting it? that sucks.

edit: my reading comprehension also sucks, evidently! just noticed that you already answered this question. i sure wish people were more reluctant to do this kind of thing to others. i can't personally imagine blithely removing someone from their longterm home because i feel like i kinda want it for me, but that shit happens all the time.

Yea basically he eenie-meenie-miney-mo’d our 1st floor apt., when we thought he’d just replace our current landlord. It was extremely degrading and stressful, also cause the Coldwell Banker Realator lady didn’t have an ounce of empathy and treated us like cattle.

Now we know the danger of being month to month! The thing is, we were m-t-m for like a year and a half, and thought we just had a chill landlord… cause he was very good to us and fixed things and was very nice.

Now we know he was just prepping us up to be trampled. And it was right before we were getting ready to buy a house, so it was just a major setback.

Word to the wise- when your landlord starts “letting” you go month to month, beware. It’s like the tide shrinking out before a tsunami. Make sure to ask them if they have intent to sell.
