Question:
Hi, I have recently come to a disagreements with my roommates and have to move out. Is it possible to find and apartment and sign a rental contract during the 9 days? I have a couple of months to move however since we decided I will leave I feel like I need to do so sooner than later, as I don’t feel like I have a home and I am worried that the cheaper rent apartments will get taken very quickly. Many thanks!
Answer:
If there is a possible monetary loss it is permitted sign a rental contract during the 9 days.
