If you're models are related to each other via a Foreignkey, beware. They're (autoincremented) primary keys could in theory be out of sync. I had the same thing just happen to me.

You may want to consider doing something like this instead:

p = Property.objects.get(pk=object_id) h = HouseLet.objects.get(property=p.id)

Or differently, whatever your exact relationships are.
