I applied for an apartment 4/3. The listed rent amount was $1420 when I applied. I was approved 4/16 and provided with two documents, a holding deposit agreement and lease agreement. Both stated the rent is $1375. I signed both. The leasing agent signed the lease. I paid April's prorated rent and the deposit in order to move in on 4/17. I paid this month's $1375 rent on 5/1. Today I received an email saying $1375 rent is wrong. They want me to sign a new lease with $1420 rent and are saying I owe $66 for April and May. Am I correct in thinking I don't have to sign the new lease or send any money beyond what I agreed to in the original lease I signed?
I love this apartment. I was planning to stay longterm so I don't want to introduce hostility between myself and the building management company. But I don't see why I'm expected to pay an extra $585 over the course of the 13mo lease to fix their mistake. There's literally no benefit for me, right?
EDIT: I went back to double check the documents. I have a copy of the lease I signed on 4/17 that says $1375. There's no signature from the leasing agent. I also have a 'move-in costs' email from the leasing agent stating the rent is $1375. Does that make a difference?
