Just make a commitment already!

No I'm surprisingly not talking about J with this post.

The last couple of days I've been making phone calls regarding potential apartments for the fall. I'm supposed to be moving to Halifax in a little over a month, but due to financial issues and then time constraints, I'm only able to get to Halifax to view apartments this Sunday. My mother (who's a real estate agent) will be coming with me, to judge whether the apartments are liveable or worth my money - since my first two apartments were basement apartments and were super damp most times.
Anyway, there's a few buildings I've been keeping my eye on online. I frequently check if they have availabilities. And have been emailing some of the property managers.
But I need to contact the Resident managers to book viewings.

So I did.
Twice I was told to call the day I'm actually in town to see if there's anything available.
Uh no. Aren't you supposed to give at least 24 hours notice for that kind of thing? What if these people aren't available that time when I call? What if there are current tenants and they are busy?
I'm kind of annoyed, but these two places are in my prime location. Within 5-10 minutes walking distance to my school. Good prices too.
All I want is to book a time to view the apartments on Sunday. Is that so hard to give?
