I live in an apt. they raised my rent $125.00 per month . At my last lease signing they told me that everyone's rent in the whole complex was going to be raised. Later now I have learned that most people that I know here received a $5 to $10 rent increase....while I am paying $125.00 more.
My help question is...Does anyone know if I have any legal recourse concerning this?
This is crazy that I am paying all of this extra money...My adult daughter and her children came to live with us only after they raised our rent. We live in a normal apt., not section 8, reduced or anything. They said that it was because they had to raise the rent to match the market value of other apts. in the area...however, it seems I was the only one suckered into the increase. They presented me with this only 30 days to the end of my lease....and we where being pressured by the management to sign our new lease or give notice too move. Most days I feel like crying..we cant afford this increase...and apparently we are the only ones paying it.
