I am trying to leave my apartment and I thought since my lease was going to expire at the end of this month that would be the same as a 30 day notice. I have put a deposit at another home and now my manager is saying that they need for us to pay next months rent and then give them a 30 day notice. I don't understand if my lease is up are they going to make me renew to another long term lease or what do I do. Please help.
