I talked to Melvin last night, and got the go-ahead to move into the new apartment, probably starting next week sometime, so that I can be in by the 15th. My move in costs for the month of March will be a total of $325 — $300 security deposit plus $50 rent pro-rated down to $25 because the official move in date is halfway through the month! Not a bad deal, there.
