sunshine 2 #1 November 9, 2006 I've lived here for about 4 1/2 years now and my landlord has never raised my rent. I got a memo today saying he was raising my rent starting in January 2007. I was freakin out, but as i read on it said he was raising it by $15. Thats it. I have the best freakin landlord ever!! He responds to problems right away, lets me have my 2 cats and i have super cheap rent. Yay!! So what do ya'll pay for your rent? And how often does your landlord raise your rent? ___________________________________________ meow I get a Mike hug! I get a Mike hug! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NWFlyer 2 #2 November 9, 2006 I don't pay rent. I have one of them crazy mortgage things. My most recent landlord (before I bought my house) sounds a lot like yours. Once he has a renter in, he doesn't raise the rent; he waits till that renter moves to raise it to market rates. So, I paid $900 a month for the three years I lived there (this was from 2000-2003). He was pretty cool. Before that I didn't live in any one place much longer than the length of the original lease, so I didn't have to deal with rent increases."There is only one basic human right, the right to do as you damn well please. And with it comes the only basic human duty, the duty to take the consequences." -P.J. O'Rourke Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's so crazy how different places have such different costs of living. For a nice townhouse like Gia's, it would prolly be around $850-$900 where i live. (Of course thats still outta my price range...) ___________________________________________ meow I get a Mike hug! I get a Mike hug! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Newbie 0 #22 November 10, 2006 about $1900/month (when converted into dollars) on a 2 bedroom 750sq ft apartment which is actually cheap for the size here. A mortgage on the same place would be cloe to $3000/month which is just unaffordable for us so we are renting for now.
