If we provided this information when we first signed why do we need to provide this again?? Tonya

Your landlord will get as much rent as he/she can. In highly desirable areas where rent control mandates how much a landlord can charge also comes with its negatives… it also means that IF the rent control boards bumps rates up– landlords are almost guaranteed to raise rents to the new level. In a way, when rent control increases the max a landlord can charge– to most it means that is what should be charged.

Rent controlled areas are heavily regulated. Landlords will most likely do what they can to get the most rent. If you are being charged more it could be due to your contract being up for renewal first or because the landlord is cutting others a break. Landlords do have the right to charge different tenants different rates as long as its not in violation of a protected class such as race, color, sec, marital status, etc.
