What if the landlord does not agree to give me enough time to move?

If you think your landlord will not agree to give you enough time to move:

• Ask for a review date in court instead of an actual move-out date. Put this in the agreement. This keeps the process moving. If you cannot find a place by the review date, report your efforts back to the landlord. They may give you more time. If your landlord does not agree to give you more time, you can ask a judge for more time.
• Pay while you stay. If you cannot pay back the rent you owe, but you can pay the current rent, offer to pay rent while you stay in the apartment and look for a new place. If your landlord agrees to this, put it in the agreement. This way, you can stay in your apartment while you look for another place and the landlord does not lose more rent.
