This is my situation. My bf. and I just signed a lease, starting August 1st. At first the landlady seemed really nice.She wanted to do some work in the apartment, put a shower in a spot where it wasn't before, put washer and dryer and move a wall!!!!!This was 6/7 weeks ago.She got one and half month deposit + first month in her hands.We got no keys yet.At first she said that when the workers would be working, we could start moving things in and close the bedroom door.Three weeks ago, we saw the place again and there was no work started yet.So, I called her and asked, are you sure we are going to have an apartment ready on August 1st?She got defensive and said of course, you signed a lease!Now she changed her mind and she won't let us go into the place, not even to take measurements to see if we can fit stuff.She said no, the place will be avaiable on August 1st!My question is what can I do if the place is not ready and if she is not willing to give us the money back,to look elsewhere?
