Check In - What's your rent payment?

I live in Oregon. My landlords are farmers. My SIL lived in our house before us. We got it when she moved. Landlord hasnt raised the rent in the last 20 years. We have two story with 2 bedrooms downstairs and 1 big room upstairs. House was built in 1893 but has been remodeled. It sits on 4 fenced acres with a barn, shop, and separate garage. Has its own well so no paying for water.

Rent is $1,200 per month.
I love my landlords.

I pay about $300 USD for a 2 bedroom all inclusive.

I am very very lucky to have a mortgage payment of like $420 a month.

With taxes and insurance and everything, my house payment is $2200 per month.

@HellsBelle I guess i am DQ--have a mortgage but I would say if your rent increase outpaces inflation you are being price-gouged Take 160 as a percentage of your current rent. If that is a higher number than the overall inflation rate (wich is about 3 percent) than the renter tacked in extra costs outside of "rising costs from inflation"

I am not sure if there is anyting renter can do about this. but it feels like you probably are being price gouged at 160

on a seperate note rent should match the GDP of the city in an index format. If you google the GDP of your metro (or town) you can index and benchmark it against average rent rates nationwde to see how reasonable your rent is given your local economy . Of course you have to adjust for size of your place and location (downtown vs outskirts of town)

the google search terms would be:
1) (insert city) rank for GDP USA
2) avg rent for (type of apartment ) in USA at (insert location example downtown)

contrast 1 and 2 from your situation to national averages.

We rent out two floors of an old Victorian in a New England resort town. Each apartment is roughly 1500 sq/ft has its own kitchen, laundry living room and 2-3 bedrooms. Rent is $1800-$2,000 each.

The main floor we keep unrented so we can stay there if desired, or perhaps friends. Her daughter probably uses it more than we do.

Right now it's $1270 per month, electric and cable not included.
In about 2 months, when I renew my lease, it will probably go up another $100 per month.

I'm renting a 2bdrm/1bath house about 1200 sqft in Memphis, TN for $1200 a month, yard maintenance included. Hasn't gone up in 3 years. Great landlord.

a lot depends on where you live and what algorithm is used. or last increase was 15%, we have a new lease this feb, if it is that high, we will move!

My mortgage payment is $650 a month for a 1800 ft manufactured home on a half acre of land of course I bought this in 2018 when the recession was not here and the interest rates were not inflamed sky high.

€481 a month for 1 combined bed/living room and a bathroom totaling 37m².

Here in Stockholm Sweden, a typical apartment's rent is based on the square foot area of the apartment itself which works out to be about $1.00 USD per square foot.

A 300 square foot bachelor apartment would therefore rent for $300 USD per month, which includes all utilities, taxes and an underground parking spot.

A 3 bedroom, one bathroom, 1200 square foot apartment would rent for $1200 USD per month, which includes one underground parking spot.

$600 plus utilities for a one bedroom.

$1445 all utilities included; southern Massachusetts

I am on disability low fixed income, $326 a month for a small one bed 3/4 bath.
