My rent in Brooklyn went from $2,300/mo at the time of my leasing signing in March 2021 to $3,200/mo if I want to renew my lease in April 2022.
Totally unsustainable for normal people 🤦🏽‍♂️— Yerrr. (@VibrantSoul718) March 7, 2022
Putting my house up for sale in the Peoples Republic of Washington State next week, and moving to Jacksonville, FL. WA State was always purple at best, but the last 2 decades has made the most beautiful place on the planet unlivable.
Yea, I can’t tell from that. My understanding of how it’s applied in many other places is that rent can rise to market levels when a unit is vacated, but cannot rise above a certain percentage if the tenant stays put.
Got just what you deserved, idiot.
Socialists want everything paid for by others.
Are the gloves part of his costume or something else ?
He accessorizes...
NY has 3 levels. Rent Control, Rent Stabilized and Decontroled.
He's probably Decontrolized and landlord raised his rent based on assesment.
It's insane. Just got my assesment. NYC decided what the gross rent income is. I wish it was what they think it is whereas I only receive less than half. Now I have to fight their numbers.
Just buy an electric apartment.....
Thanks for the info and sorry for your situation.
Stage one of the progressive cancer is “bike paths”
Stage two is traffic circles
Stage three is the once all local city council is now full of older out of state progressives
Stage four is an art festival
It is terminal when the homeless camps pop up every where.
The last two cities I lived in died this way.
Nope. In fact. My experience has been the people fleeing the progressive cities are the most staunch progressives their are. They have money and time to get involved with local politics and turn their new homes in to the same crappy progressive place they left.
This law should be removed. It's an inheritance. Have a tenant who's family has been living in one apartment since 1940. The granddaughter lives there now and does not pay rent. NOTHING I can do about her. Her rent would have been around $600 by now. Another tenant pays $427 for a 6 room apt.
How does NYC expect us to maintain a building with those rents??!!!
“My rent in Brooklyn went from $2,300/mo at the time of my leasing signing in March 2021 to $3,200/mo if I want to renew my lease in April 2022.”
As FJB would say “rent a cheaper apartment.”
Im seeing a lot of NE license plates here in NC. Housing is going though the roof according to Zillow estimate.
Maybe renters should have paid their rent the past two years of covid. Their landlords didn’t get free property tax during that time.
Texas has been turning into New Kalifornia for the past decade.
BTW, TX allows for an annual 10% property tax increase. Try going from property tax the equivalent of 2 weeks income to 4 months income in the same house and the same job over the course of time. Who gets a 10% pay raise every year to compensate?
So going from "Aunt Teefa" & lush forests to "Florida Man" and lush swamps.? Hehehe.. Aaaaight..
Dunno much about it 'cept what I saw from passing thru on 95. Saw enough to remember "No thanks"..
“$2,300/mo at the time of my leasing signing in March 2021”
Well, you signed a lease 1 year into the pandemic lockdown when people were out of work and rents were down, and now the lockdown is over and rents are rebounding. Don’t base your long term budget on a short term discount.
Real estate was ridiculous here for a while....subsiding a bit but still way over what it should be.
Last summer a 2200 sq. Ft. house with a pool a few doors down from us went for $550k....realistically I figure it should have sold for maybe $350 at best.
And they were selling in days and sometimes hours for 10s of thousands over asking price.
It’s a trip.
Anyone renting at 3200 a month is already an idiot.
