Hello all-
I'm a 22-yr-old recent college grad. I've been working steadily for the past 9 months, but I've gotten in over my head in a real estate deal in Spain. Long story short, I owe 2 months rent and my landlord is threatening to evict. It will literally be 2 weeks before I sell my interest in the Spanish property and am nearly $100k richer (and thusly am able to pay my rent), but I don't know what to do (as this is my first apartment, and I don't have experience in these matters.) I should mention that: A) this is a commercial lease (although I don't know exactly what that means in terms of legal occupancy under NYC zoning codes) and B) I have been in touch with my landlord and have explained the situation. How long does the eviction process take (realistically -- court appearances, etc included)? Is a typed note from the management company considered formal legal notice? Last but not least, should I be concerned? Thanks in advance...
Henry
