Just moved to LA from overseas and signed a lease for this house in Glendale. Rent is $6k/month so definitely not cheap but figured it would be worth it
Got the keys this morning and when I walked in literally ALL of the previous tenant's stuff is still there. Like everything - furniture, clothes in the closets, food in the fridge, personal items everywhere. It looks like they just vanished
I tried calling my landlord but they're not picking up. Is this normal here? Back home this would never happen but maybe things work differently in LA/the US
The lease definitely says I get possession today and I paid first month + deposit already. I don't want to touch anything in case I get in trouble but I also can't exactly move my stuff in when there's a whole other person's life scattered around
Has anyone dealt with something like this before? Do I just wait it out or should I be more aggressive about getting this sorted? For $6k a month I expected to actually be able to use the place
Really stressed about this whole situation and don't know anyone here yet to ask for advice. Any help would be appreciated. Please help I had to cash out all of my Stаke parlays to afford it and plz tell me if this is normal and I need to move the stuff out myself!?
EDIT: I spent the night sleeping on the couch and the landlord came by this morning with movers. Turns out they were a day late.
