I managed to drop my rent by 15% during covid and now my landlord wants to hike it up to pre-covid level. Are people experiencing the same?

Yes, markets back up

Nyc has limits to rent increases. If they actually lowered the rent price they cannot legal hike it way up.

If they offered a concession -old a mont or two free - then they can remove the concession.

PM1 is correct. Landlords can charge whatever they want as long as their unit/building is not rent controlled.

Did you expect to keep your Covid rate?

You mean your lease is being renewed at market rate and you are upset? Or prior to renewal?

The market is back up like nothing happened. So seems normal…

Do you have any logical thinking ? Rates follow markets, there was less demand during COVID, so rates went down. Now there is high demand, so rates go up. Did you seriously think you would just maintain the low rate ? Wow lol

Be nice

Lol, just be glad it’s not a 50% hike

Corporate suggested me for a DON position in TX. I currently live in SD and work as ADON. Corporate said minimum salary would be 115k. Then flew me there for 2 weeks to see the building (nursing home). They all loved me, as does corporate. But my offer today was 90k. When I said I was told 115k they countered with 100k. I said I’d think about it over the weekend but really am looking for at least 110k. Have to sell my house and move and rebuy w higher interest rates. What do you think??

Posting here because I truly don't know what to do. Hired a moving company to move out of NYC. They turned out to be just the 'brokers' not the company who would actually do the moving services. Essentially both companies worked together to get as much money out of me as possible, and the pick-up experience was awful. It's now been 10 days and I still have no idea where my belongings are, and neither company will answer my calls, texts, emails, anything!! What can I do in this situation?
