We entered our new house excitedly but was greeted relatively cold by our super warm landlord. We did not make a big fuss out of it and just proceeded with the turn over and were ready to move on with our lives...and so we thought.
We went out for lunch then went back home to "clean up". The hours dragged on and on and there was so little we are able to do and as we scratch the surface, more and more things need to be cleaned. As it turns out, we finished "moving in" on a Monday the 15th. All beds were in place on the 18th... and the real problem started on the 19th.
The initial "cleaning up" was just the tip of the iceberg. We later found out that the root of all our misunderstandings was our realty agent who kept our cash (some we gave her 3 weeks ago), issued a check that bounced and made up stories about us to our landlord to evade paying up. That was the last straw, we went to the police, met up with the president of their realty company and got her out of job. Lucky for us, our landlord is ready and "able" to fight this battle and it appears that we may have won this one after all.
With all initial cobwebs, misunderstandings and treachery dealt with I think we are ready to move on with our lives.
We have a very fine house after all...
