OUR RENT!!!!!

Original post by Cacarina

FH just called me to tell me we will have to move on May 1. They raised our rent by $550/month!!!! That is soo ridiculous! I love living in Manhattan, but the rent is sooo expensive. Our apartment is a tiny little thing and they want us to pay $2,500/month! Ahhh!!! I guess we are moving to Queens...I really don't want to, but I guess it makes the most sense for us right now. We can't be spending that kind of money when we are trying to save for the wedding.

Awww man that truly bites!!!

But I can totally sympathize cause the same thing happened to me. I was paying $1280 for a walk-up studio on 14th Street and they bumped it up to $1800

I lived for a very short time on the border of Rego Park/Forest Hills. I don't know where you work in the city, but I would take the LIRR...it was about a 20 minute commute.

My broker was FANTASTIC. FM if you want his info.

WOW that is more than my mortgage on a 3,500 square foot house on 1 acre

BUmmer but think of it as a fresh start and new beginning!



Hmmm, where do you live? Maybe its time to buy a home!!!!



CT SOoo much cheaper here!!!

Here is a picture of my house!!!



we're thinking a lot about CT too. too many sacrifices to pay the blood money for mortgages on LI/NYC. i refuse to live my life that way.

2500 a month is way more than our condo which is huge. I think it is time for you to move, you can get so much more for your money and it can be something you own
