Any tips on negotiating apartment renewals for large buildings? Just got a renewal offer for my 2BR apartment… it’s 20% higher than my current. I can afford it but damn that would be a bummer

I used to write a letter to negotiate each year. It was a 8-unit building so I got to know the brothers who ownered it a bit from reaching out over time, even if they were out of state. The least you can do is ask. State why you've been a good tenant and the benefit of keeping you vs. dealing with vacancy. But there's a countdown with this as rent goes up and others are waiting to pay exactly what you won't pay or more. Management knows this.

If we both own the car (i.e. both names on the title), how do we manage filing for the tax credit when filing separately? Do we just pick one of us to file? Is there guidance on splitting the credit across owners? Does it matter what order our names are on the title?

From my understanding 10% PS is better because it’s just a standard 10% on top of whatever I contribute though it takes 5 years to vest. Does this mean if I leave before 5 years I don’t get any of it?
