So... If you had just paid the penalty in the first place you would already be done ? Instead you have now paid the $2700 plus another month ?

I've been living in the apartment, so it's not like it's been money down the drain. I would have had to pay rent anyways somewhere. When I told them to make my apartment available, they told me that they get calls almost every day on 1 bedroom apartments and would be absolutely shocked if mine lasted an entire month. So it didn't seem like it was going to be a big deal at first.
