New landlord recently bought building. Several units and they live in the building too. Got notice that rent is going up. They did it just a few dollars less than 10% so they’d get out of paying any tenant relocation fee.

Assuming my options are to move or pay higher rent, but please let me know if there are other options I’m not seeing. Given 3 months notice for increase and I’m month to month so from what I understand I don’t need to give more than 30 days notice on my end as to whether I’m staying or going.

Have lived here several years and another tenant has lived here over 15. Seems dumb to try and get rid of good tenants by raising the rent (15 year plus person can’t afford increase either as they are on a fixed income). Not to mention the place is old, most of my appliances are probably from the 90s and landlord has a day job where they make good money-think tech, law, or medicine specialty money. How are those of us at the bottom even supposed to survive?

You work from home. I get in and you’re eating breakfast yet kid has been up and you say you haven’t changed their diaper?!?! They aren’t even 1 and they were poopy by the way. Guess I should be glad you gave them a bottle. 🙄

EDIT: again today. “Baby’s woke up 30 minutes ago. I didn’t have time to change them.” The F you didn’t have time to change them. 😡 Funny how upper showered and dressed yet couldn’t change your kids diaper.

I’ve lived in a place for four years. It recently got sold and now I have a new landlord. Was told when landlord took over old lease was still in effect. Also one tenant got a new roommate and this new roommate suddenly is complaining about me doing laundry past 9 pm.

New tenant has complained to landlord about this a few times and now landlord is setting certain laundry hours effective immediately. Nothing in my lease outlines certain laundry hours or even certain quiet hours and prior to this new tenant moving in I never had noise complaints. Landlord has hired a property management company and they’re supposed to send a new lease. What are my rights with this? Or do I have any? I don’t work from home so there’s limited time I can do laundry after work since new tenant wants things quiet so they can go to bed. Really annoyed by this all and don’t have money to move at the moment.
