I am officially Not a Criminal Pervert.

At least, in the state of New Jersey.

Went to the realtor's last night for my credit check. Turns out my credit score is like 40 points higher than the last time I got it checked- I have a service w/my credit card company where I get my credit report four times a year. At the same time they scanned my credit history they scanned my residential history, which I had written down differently on the lease form 'cos my college dorms were never my legal residence, but they also scanned the NJ state sex offender database. Since I wasn't there, I am officially not a criminal pervert.

I gave them three pay stubs to photocopy and a photocopy of my latest W-2; the building people wanted to see 'two or three' pay stubs or two W-2s. Since I just changed jobs in October, I felt that indicating level of income might make up a bit for the lack of employment history at this job. The realtor says he thinks this will be more than enough.

Now I wait to hear from the building company and talk to them about when I can a) see the lease and b) sign the lease. I won't be able to sign until Sunday at the earliest, 'cos they want two and a half months' rent up front and I get paid on Sunday. I have two months' rent in the bank but I need that extra half-month, y'know? At least the last tenant is paying the realtor fee. That makes me happy.

From here it is a matter of renting a U-Haul truck and getting a day off to move, since there is a move-in fee of $300 for weekdays and $500 for weekends. You do the math. I have driven box trucks before, so unless U-Haul's trucks differ from the one I drove in Florida, that should be all right. Dad won't be able to take time off to move stuff, though, and Mom's still on crutches. I don't suppose people on my friendslist who live in the area might be available sometime around 1 Feb or the same week...?

There's a move in fee... to the apartment? Or is this a U-Haul fee? Either way, that's /weird/.

Anyway, good luck with moving, and congratulations, and things. I'd help, but, y'know, school. And several hours away.

They charge you to move in? WTF?????????

Dude, that's just evil

Yay! Progress is good. Alas, I will not be around that week -- combo of my b-day and the New York Gift show being kind of hectic. But let me know later on if you need helpers to shelve books or what have you.

Okay, I'll buy the criminal part, but I'm not so sure about the pervert part. ;)

If I only knew how to metaquotes stuff...

Yes, but I still suspect you of being a pervert.
