Ffs, rent is going up by the max legally allowed again. Time to look elsewhere.

$1460 a month for this crappy place is beyond ridiculous. I was looking on FB market place just to see what’s out there…lots of studios that are pet friendly for $1000ish in the county…some with a washer/dryer included and/or a private yard. And even the smaller ones are bigger than this place and in better condition.

Just no housemates! There is no greater bliss than living alone 😅

During covid, house and rent prices nearly doubled - and then the two major chain supermarkets put EVERYTHING up about 75% if not more.

It's obscene. Middle class are now legit living in poverty by economic standards .

@OogieBoogie Where I live was bought by a nationwide company a few years ago, and they’ve been raising the rent by the maximum allowed by law every year. I think they’re trying to drive out all the renters so they can develop it…we’re just 1.5 miles from the ocean, so townhouses would rent for a mint here.

@Zaphod42 Theres no love in this world for humanity or kindness anymore ..... just the dollar and profits.

Something has gotta break soon - this aint right 😕
