Been apartment hunting, and after a long search thought I found the right place. Applied, the company did the security (background) check, and approved me. Want me in to sign the contract and pay up tomorrow.
IN the meantime, found a better place by chance (introduced by aquaintance). Can I move on to the new and better place without any penalties? The background check is supposed to cost something like 40% of a month's rent. But, as I haven't signed a contract, I don't see how I could be charged for it. I just would like to be sure it isn't binding, or something that could impede future background checks...
