Lacey | Landlord/Roommate dispute - Landlord trying to raise rent midway through lease?? |
I signed a lease that states rent as $1,300 with a maximum of 4 people living in this house. However, we are paying $1,200 because the landlord "meant" to change it to $1,200, but couldn't using the lease she printed off the net. So far, there are 3 of us living here, splitting up the $1,200 rent. We are in the process of getting a 4th roommate, only to find out that the landlord says she will increase rent to $1,500 to cover their mortgage if the 4th person moves in. The lease states nothing about raising rent. Is this legal? I live in Grand Rapids, Michigan and have been trying to find legislation on this. Please help! |

Even though you have been paying $1200 for rent when it says $1300, if the 4th roommate moves in (with her agreement) then she certainly can charge you the $1300 as stated in the lease. Double check and make sure the additional $200 ($1500) does not include an increase in the utilities that you may be responsible for as per your lease. Then she just may be able to charge the full $1500. |

No, it's not legal. But if you have a signed lease that says $1,300 she can certainly raise it up to that. |

She cannot do that. The lease has the rent printed on it. Call your local housing authority. |

if you both signed a contract he cannot do it. dont let him and if he tries to kick you out get a lawyer. |

The landlord can only charge the amount within the 4 corners of the contract for the number of people in the contract. Below is a couple of websites that might help. When you send the landlord the letter it mentions please be sure you do it by certified mail so you will have proof, get all your records and when you leave take pictures or even better video because the landlord might try to get back at you so take proper steps to protect yourself. Hope these help and good luck! |

you can only be charged what is clearly stated on your lease andsigned by all parties. if it said a maximum of 4 can reside for 1200 then pay just that. if she continues to pester you about it let her know you would need to see in your lease where that is outlined. give her a chance to show you. if she says she will take you to court then go because no court will side with someone who is violating the terms of the lease. most courts side with the tenant rather than the landlord. dont be afraid to stand your ground esp if u have 1 yr lease. just keep paying ur stated rent and u should be fine. |
