Paranormal Member 469 Member For: 21y 8m 4d Location: Brissy Posted 17/07/07 09:19 AM Share Posted 17/07/07 09:19 AM GF got a call today from the real estate asking us to sign a new lease as were at the end of a 12mth lease, she advised them we'd rather not sign another 12mth lease as we may move before the end, he said I'll call you back after speaking to the owner who now wants to up the rent near 25%!!!! :w00t2: and at that price we could rent a newly built house with all mod cons, this rental is pretty basic over priced already no dishwasher/aircon/heating hasn't even go insulation in the friggin roof. Not happy Jan. Did some research an looks like they can do it with 30day written notice feccck just needed to vent some frustration anyone else in the same boat?

What's your rent amount at the moment? We are paying 300/w (two weeks in advance) which went up from 290 after 6 months. They know we are good tennants so they are looking after us. Maybe get on the phone and tell them you will pay $10 more but no higher??
