Increasing Utilities mid-lease, Flagstaff, Arizona
Hello,
My girlfriend has a lease that started 8/1/2016 and ends on 7/31/2017. The lease shows that her RUBS (utilities) are $20 a month and the management company is trying to increase it by $35 a month to $55 mid-lease. They are planning on making the changes by 11/1/2016 and need every resident to come in and re-sign the first part of the lease that outlines how much is owed. Sounds to me like they messed up their expenses and are now trying to cover their mistakes in an illegal way. Any advice would be much appreciated! This company is MEB in Flagstaff, Arizona, they're pretty awful as far as my experiences with them as a renter have been.
