Landord raised the rent

He gave me the notice yesterday it will increase by $85 starting May 1st. I tried negoting with him because I lost my job recently and I can only afford to pay the original price which is $865 he told me he can't promise me anything but will talk to the rental company I'm so worried I feel like he's lying about the rent increase these are greedy people from L.A who only care about money I'm a young single mom I can't afford the new price he then tells me that he it'll be increasing to $95 the following year like, wtf are you serious? The landlord we had before them never increased our rent but these L.A aholes want to. I live in a low income neighborhood and he wants to increase my rent wtf.

I think you should reconnect with family, move home and save your money so you can buy your own property. Otherwise you're always going to be at the will of property owners. Most of them want as much as they can possibly get for the property and don't care about you personally. Most of them figure if you won't or can't pay it, someone else will. They want to drive the market up because it's how they make money.
