whatever you do, dont default on it lol.
your first mortgage payment will be deferred. so if you close in november, your first house payment probably will not be due until january.
you can also ask for a small extension on the first payment from the bank at closing. it never hurts to ask for the first house payment to be deferred to february of 2010. dont let them think its a deal breaker...just let them know that it would make everything alot easier for you. explain the apartment situation and chances are that they will have no problem with it. your tied in with them for 30 years or so anyways lol.

I broke mine back in 02 when i bought my first house, of course it pops up on your credit report evrytime, but i never had an issue financing anything, and i usually get my wife a new ride every two years and still get the lowest interest, not even when i purchased my new house last year i had zero issues.. dont know what it really consist of?.

You could always sublet the apartment.
or
Look hard at your rental agreement, the complex usually violates some aspect of the contract, usually minor, but it doesn't matter. Once they establish the standard of violating the contract terms, they open the door for you to do the same. They will threaten you out the wazoo, but if you don't back down, threaten them with litigation, they will usually give in. Its not worth the legal fees they will end up paying for $2K from you, just make sure that what you are claiming is verifiable.
or
Another option is that all rental leases have Military Clauses in them. This allows you to break the lease free and clear if you have orders to move duty station or have been mobilized.
I hate rental companies. They tell you that you have to pay the remainder of the lease, then they fill the apartment the day you leave. They are criminals. I say the hell with them.
