Should i pay the extra rent?

My jobs ends in July. If I continue my lease through April I only pay $800 and then I can go on a month to month lease and pay $965 for every month after April leading to July. Should I do this or if I dont find a job by April, just move in with my dad and say what will amount to and extra 570 in rent from may until july? I mean I can afford it because I will still have income coming in until July. I just dont want to enter into a year lease agreement when I will be out of a job in July. i am currently looking for another job

If your dad is nice and you will be fine living together for a short time, then for sure, save your money and live with dad!

I'd personally save the money if you don't mind living with dad.

Question has been answered. Nothing wrong with trying to get another opinion but at some point you need to bite the bullet and just make the best decision you can with the info you have available, its very unlikely you will get some major new revelation on your 3rd (or whatever) asking of this question. Best luck.

Move in with dad and save. Success · 8 hours ago 0 Thumbs up 0 Thumbs down Report Abuse Comment Landlord365 Staying month to month makes more sense for your circumstances than signing a new lease. If you sign a new 1 yr lease & do not find a job fast enough you put your self in a position to either break the lease or get evicted. Both will make it hard to rent in the future. So while it will cost more money in the short term you are protecting your future. Of course staying with dad is the cheapest option.

I mean, you have months to plan ahead...why not try to get another job now??? Casey Y · 8 hours ago 0 Thumbs up 0 Thumbs down Report Abuse Comment linkus86 Pay the extra rent. The hassle and expense of moving is worth the difference and flexibility you need. linkus86 · 9 hours ago 1 Thumbs up 1 Thumbs down Report Abuse Comment Jennifer That sounds like the only responsible and guaranteed good outcome. You won't lose. If you find a job, you can renew your lease. If you don't find a job and you prematurely renew your lease trying to save that bit of money, you could find yourself in a stressful bind. I would pretty much bank on having to move either way, because if you find a new job I would think you would want to find an apartment with a better rate, comprable to what you were paying. Unless, you are able to find a new job and quit the other before having to go month-to-month.

Without knowing what happens after July any advice is hard to give but if you plan to stay in the area and think you can get a new job then I'd just start looking for a new job. If you don't find one and money is tight or may get tight then move in with your dad in April or whenever you think you won't easily get a new job. If you do or can get a new job and you want your own place then keeping renting the current place, maybe sign a new lease or even look for a better, maybe cheaper place, or move in with dad if you think that would be fine. If you are moving out of town after July and money could get tight then I'd move in with dad if you don't have to much stuff and moving isn't a huge hassle. In April and May the savings at $570 per month is $1140 total but if moving is a huge hassle and would cost even $500 then maybe not worth the bother but if money is tight you may have no choice. So, it all depends on info you never put out there but you get what the concerns are.
