Soxy Posted December 12, 2004 Share Posted December 12, 2004 So, how much is a normal rent increase per year? I'm looking at an apartment that a friend of mine currently has--but the rent is going up $100 in the year for when I'd take it over. This seems kind of extreme to me, but I've never lived in an apartment before...Any words of wisdom? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsider2k5 Posted December 12, 2004 Share Posted December 12, 2004 It is much easier to raise the rent on a new tenant, versus a person who lives there year to year. It is a pretty typical move, just ordinarily you'd have no idea you were paying $100 more than the last guy. Tell the landlord you know what your buddy paid, and see if that makes a difference.
