1 year after an eviction…?

I have the means to pay back what I owe my landlord…around $3000. I was one of two people on the lease…and my former roommate passed away since then, so I guess I am fully responsible now. My question is, I am going to be applying to rent a house/apartment in about 4 months, and I cannot have this eviction as is, what are the chances my former landlord (an apt. community) will work with me to get their money and possibly give me some good standing to work with as far as rental history? How does this work? It is not on my credit report, so I guess its up to the landlord to relay this info to my future landlords, unless they do a check for an eviction? Any help on this broad topic is greatly appreciated.

Im being evicted?

Im being evicted from my apartment because I did not pay the rent because they did not fix the stove, or the leaking toilet for 4 momths. They came and fixed the stuff just 2days ago. When I go to court if I pay all the money can I stay in my unit

Apartment Lease?

I currently live in an apartment, but would like to move out early. My lease is up in the middle of August, but if I pay my rent at the apartment, and it is vacant for a month or so, can the apartments do anything? (Fines, etc.?) Everything will be paid for, I will be doing double duty for a month or so……

has anyone been involved in an volatile relationship?

i just left my guy of over a year because it had become a very controlling relationship. ive always been strong and independent, but got stuck and kept thinking he could change. he could be the nicest guy, helped me a lot, but now i see that it was his control and power. Hed pay rent but throw it in my face. things only got worse, his verbal and physical abuse made me feel like i was his unloved pet, not someone he cared for. so i left a few weeks ago and now im trying to start all over again in a new town, because i dont feel safe in my own apartment. i know its the best choice for me but it is so hard, because i lost so much being with him, now i finally leave, and lose my friends and life of 4 years. which is better than losing my life, i guess, but wish that there was some way to make him hurt, emotionally, the way he has made me.
im out now, but if anyone is still in one, do the right thing, and get out. i know its easier said than done, but you will never be able to find true happiness until you do.

Do I move in or bail out?

So, I think I found an apartment, but now I’m not so sure. I found a really cute place, nice roommate, great neighborhood, really cheap rent. It’s just that the apartment is really, really small.And I have a LOT of stuff. And the cost of putting things in storage is prohibitive (essentially negating the point of the cheap rent). And I’m so stressed about cramming all of my stuff in there that I’m awake with a stomachache at 12:30 in the morning. I like my stuff. I’m a nester. I like my 340 CDs, books, 56 pairs of shoes, and big comfy sofa.

But I already told the roomie that I’d move in. Should I bail on him? Move in anyway and hope for the best? Cram boxes with friends all over town? Help!
Extra detail: I can’t loft my bed, the ceiling is too low.
I like my stuff – I find familiar clutter really comforting. So I wrote the guy a really nice email saying that while I would love to live with him, I just can’t live in that apartment. I like space and I like my junk. (Especially since I’m in the middle of getting divorced, I want my security blanket of useless crap.)
