Rent Increase Innormal
I moved to new studio from Nov for paying the rent for $600 in Abington PA from Nov on month by month lease. The landlord infoed me on Dec 31 will increase the rent to $650.
The landlord told me he had the studio rent out for $750 before I signed the lease and I concerned about the rent increase after I moved in , he said he would not want to studio empty and he would increase the rent for 6 months.
Right now after three months and New Year eve, I received the mail about the $50 increase.
Mentally I am not prepare for that and feel really stress about the increase.
