On May 11, 1984, appellants were informed that Jon’s employer, Eastern Airlines, was transferring him and he was to begin work on May 30, 1984. On May 18 and 19, 1984, appellants, having travelled to Kansas City, visited several apartment complexes for a place to live, including respondent’s Continental Apartment Complex. On the latter date, they entered a lease agreement with respondent for an apartment at 1921 N.E. 77th Street, and paid a $300 security deposit. The lease term was June 1, 1984 to May 31, 1985. Kim informed respondent’s assistant manager, Bob Kintz, that they wished to move into the apartment before May 30, but he told her it would not be available until sometime between June 1 and June 4, so they made an oral agreement that appellants were to take possession between those dates with rent for June to be prorated.
