BOSTON—Apologizing to his tenant for circumstances that were beyond his control, local landlord Eddie Turley was reportedly forced Monday to raise the rent due to thinking of a bigger number. “You can re-sign your lease, but I have to raise it by $250 a month because I realized there was a bigger number your rent…
There are two kinds of landlords I’ve encountered over the years.
The first knew my name and would only raise my rent when their insurance and or property tax would increase, and would show me the bills as evidence. There was even a year when my rent got lowered because that year’s assessment went down.
The second referred to my living space as a unit and spoke of my rent as below market that needed to catch up.
If you’re renting, find the first landlord whenever possible, though it seems to get harder and harder to do so.
Yeah this is the challenge I see on here all the time.
Property costs increase this causes rent to go up to cover costs.
If you don’t want to pay increased rent buy a house and pay the increases elsewhere anyway.
I’m sure there a cunt land lords but there are also people who rented who know how it was and they be reasonable.
