โ ๏ธ Key Warnings / Constraints
- Three months' notice is the number that matters for โ Buy a flat with Jonas or keep renting, and for a sabbatical: nothing about this flat can change faster than that.
- Ask in writing, always. He keeps the e-mails and so do I.
- My reading, not a lawyer's. If it ever matters, read the lease.
