We'll probably renew our lease in May or June (or whenever it ends) because who the heck wants to move with a baby? Plus, we happen to live close to an express bus line. Shane walks to the bus stop most days (it's up a terrible hill and it takes maybe 10-15 mins). If we moved, we'd likely have to get a second car. Lotsa extra expense. That said, I'm still going to look into rental properties that fit my criteria. If I find one that's less than what we're paying now, I'm going to see about negotiating with the leasing company here. Last year, our rent went up $20/month and I'd rather not see it increase again! I hate moving, too.

A good tenant is hard to find and filling an empty apartment is a lot of work - not to mention expensive. I am suprised they didn't throw in a fruit basket.
