Re: uhmmmmmm in 24 days
250 is a lot to increase though! Especially in this economy! Is the landlord somebody who owns lots of property? I don't know your situation, but you could try and shop around for similar sized/set up places and get quotes. If you approach your landlord with that, he/she might reconsider. I had a friend who did that and actually ended up paying less than she was previously, because she found out that lots of places are going for less just to get someone in the place. The landlord might be hiking the price to cover empty places elsewhere, but it's not going to help him/her to have an empty apartment and nothing coming in!

You're welcome. I would really play it off like you have no option but to move because you can't take a $250 hike. Even if you showed them Craigslist postings of similar places managed by other companies that are cheaper (to show there are places available) and threaten to move. Even if you don't really want to, they don't need to know that....
