Luckily I've been able to pay my rent on time to landlord past 2 months.

The units are not metered separately, and all are charged utilities via an equal split averaged out over the past year's usage with a 50% markup.

We haven’t done anything like this in the past, but want a more concrete payment plan.

I said that's fine with me.few days pasted, i called and texted, no one picked up. 

Someone who responds to an ad on the Internet is an unknown in terms of their character, even though they fill out an application and undergo a background check of some sort.In the past, I would get a discount on a month's rent if I renewed my lease by a certain date.

@Raymond Lewis  I don't have any specific referrals in the space you're looking for but you can just punch in "YOUR CITY or AREA" plus "ATTORNEY" into the search window above and check out a few bios and people's past endorsements to zero in on someone that fits your ticket.
