  • 枫下家园 / 住房话题 / Is it possible to have my rent lowered since the current rent has done down to $799 from last year 's $899?
    I have been lived in this aprtment building for more than one year, the rent on my lease is $899, but this year, they have lower their rent to 799. Please give me some advice if I can talk to the manager to adjust my rent accordingtly?

    Thanks.
    • Here is my tips:
      Do your research, prepare to show your report to the manager.

      Before negotiating with the manager, make your bottom line first. For example, if you know the current rent is $799, assume you are going to move out, then you have to pay $400 something to cover the moving cost and other tedious settling down tasks. So you may decide to stay here and give out the $400 to the landlord for saving your settle down works. That means you should be willing to pay around $830 for your new contract.

      The manager will accept your reasonable offer, I believe.

      Please share us your final result later.
    • If $799 is the public price, you can take a risk.
      You can give them a written notice for moving and thanks for their services. They will ask the reason, then you can negotiate the price with them. This happens before. Good luck.
