The apartment complex that I applied to just called to tell me that I am at the top of the list and to come in tomorrow with the fee for the background check and proof of income, etc.
I'm stunned. I expected to wait at least a few months.
Now I'm freaking out about "Is this the right thing to pursue?" I might lose my chance to get a section 8 voucher, by taking this. Then, again, the choice voucher could take another year to come up. I can't afford to wait that long. The voucher is what would save me the most money, but it's the hardest to get. I can still be in line for a voucher, even if I take this apartment coming up. However, when I would get the voucher, I would have to use it in 60 days, or lose it. (from what another PC member has posted.)
I'm afraid that, if I jump at something offered now, I might miss something better that could come along later. Well - I suppose we could apply that kind of thinking to every decision in life and get nowhere.
