My husband and I moved into a 2 bedroom 2 bath apartment in October 2013. At the time, our rent was $844 without water. Not a bad deal when you consider the size of the apartment and the location. However, we just received our renewal offer letter and they are trying to raise us to $1130 a month without water. This is insane! That was for a 12 month lease but get this, they would let us stay on a month to month term for $1114! I thought that was the whole point of signing a lease, was that you got some sort of consideration. The so-called upgrades they have done in the apartments over the last year are a joke. New cabinets really meant painting the existing shells that have been there for years and putting new facings on them. New wood laminate flooring in the kitchen and bathrooms meant laying it down on top of 3-4 layers of old linoleum which is why it is already starting to peel in spots. New counter tops really meant spraying a gritty refinishing product over the top of the existing counter tops which will peel if you actually have to scrub them to get something off. I was willing to over look all of this because it the price was right. But try bringing someone over to the apartment without being embarrassed about the garbage always overflowing from the dumpsters and old couches left out there for days. Or the paint peeling off the wood in the breezeways along with the rusted metal stairs leading up to your apartment. In the spring, there was a span of at least a month or two that the grass wasn't touched and we had grass almost 2 feet tall all over the property. We were told the rent was being raised because the market was improving and they are right, the market is improving. But if you want to charge what The Lexington and Grande View are charging, the property needs to match their quality. We have put in our notice and are going to buy a house. Really surprising, we can get a very nice 3 bedroom house for less in a monthly mortgage than they are trying to charge in rent for a 2 bedroom apartment.
