Hello, my name is Adele Piro Graham I have been renting in this building for 14 years. Moved there because there was a 24 hour front desk person, security cameras and a consigliore in the lobby during the day. These amenities had been the major reason for my moving the because I felt somewhat secure.After few years they took away the 24 Front desk assistance, the cameras and the lobby consigliore.No adjustments have been made on the amount of rent, in the contrary; there has been an increase in the rent every year. I receive a letter stating that I owe $1,500.00 in back rent from 2006. I have so far complied with the rent increase and always pay on time. To my recollection I have been paying rent accordingly to the lease agreement. I find this to be poor accounting serviceand I don’t think I should pay this amount. I really don’t want to move at this time. I don’t know if I should let them take me to court and what would be my chances of making my point to the Judge.What is your advice and can they evict me if I refuse to pay this amount?Thank you in advance
