  1. Good luck, heather.

    1. I assume the new guy gave you his name and an address for the check.

    2. Look up your building on ACRIS. See whether a change of ownership (deed) or any new financing is recorded. Search for the new guy’s name on ACRIS and see what comes up.

    3. Write the LL — the one you have a contract with — and cc the new guy, saying that there seems to be some confusion as to where to pay rent, and spell out neutrally what happened. Ask whether you are to continue to pay as before or pay the new guy, and what the new guy’s status is — new owner, agent, manager, etc.

    4. Keep a contemporaneous journal of all your dealings on this issue until it is resolved or you move out.

    Post back here if the weirdness continues.

  2. “I’ve also confirmed that The Bell House will reserve a cluster of couches for our group.”

    Biff, will there be any bean bags for those who don’t like couches?

    Morning all. Hope everyone who wasn’t sufficiently pathetic to post on Friday’s OT, or on the Weekend Edition, had a great Thanksgiving!

  3. “but again, wtf: someone can just break the front door lock and then replace it??? Who does that?”

    Low life, scum landlords/developers. Did you see the thread “Craptacular Thanksgiving on Adelphi Street?”

    That sort of landlord.

  4. Oh yeah, and crazy new guy also fired our super. Told him he couldn’t afford him. Nice. Another vote of confidence!!

    I am assuming this will all be sorted out and either crazy guy will go away, or we will have to move, but just wanted to vent. It seems like with every rental I’ve ever lived in… there’s always something.

  5. Checked property shark, I see nothing in the free section anyways. I knew there was some stuff going on with the developer vs. the landlord/management company, and am assuming this is the shakeup from this. Supposedly the old landlord AND the new landlord are both preparing documents and/or planning to speak with us… but again, wtf: someone can just break the front door lock and then replace it??? Who does that?
