Troubles with the Lease...

Today I got a draft of the lease for the new place. Most of it is pretty standard and there really isn't much to it. But there was however one section that definitely wasn't quite the way I wanted and needed it to be. It's the section of keeping animals. While it is standard that you are allowed to keep animls that are being kept in cages dogs and cats are a different thing. That's something that doesn't fall under that clause. And I definitely wanted to have that spelled out in the lease otherweise I was not going to sign it. That I was goign to be allowed to have cats and dogs was something the real eastate agent had promised to me.
So I called the people responsible for the contract. Of course the woman who dealt with this particular contract wasn't available right away. But she did call me back later in the day and we talked it over and she assured me that in the final draft. I made it quite clear that I wouldn't sign this contract unless that is spelled out and that I can not be held responsible if costs should arise because the contract has to be redone. She told me that would be no problem and that the only thing I had to do is to get the security doposit to them in time. So that means that I will be signing the lease for the new place on August 26th.
