So after much deliberation we moved each time.I live in Lexington ky and are known for slum lords.I called tenant svc who said they had to give 30days written notice for that change due to krs statute.It's a pickle as we ate due to move summer and spend summer with spouse at Tyndall afb putting things in storage .. not sure how I would move as we would need only 3mths of housing before moving in August to another city where 3 of my 4 children attend college.
