Q: My boyfriend and I have finally found a place that we love and have decided that this is where we are settling for the next few years. The unit is well-kept, the location is unbeatable, and our rent is relatively low (for the neighborhood/Chicago). The only issue, though, is that our lease expired at the end of July. In about mid-June I emailed our landlord asking him when he would like for us to sign a new lease and he said that he uses a letter that essentially states both parties are agreeing that the lease is renewed for another year at the same terms. Fine. However, the end of July came and went and nothing happened…
