Rent increase vs. income flat

What landlord asks for your salary after you are already in the building? I've never been asked on any renewal what I make now. If they knew that I'm sure they'd look to jack it up a bit more since 'I can afford it.'

assuming this a rent-stabilized situation, or what does 40x have to do with it? I have an idea - rent something cheaper?

"What if you want to move, do you have to downgrade because the rental market has increased?"

-YES

hoodia-
I believe the answer you are looking for is: the 40x rule that many landlords have generally only applies to one becoming a new tenant (signing a vacancy lease, not a renewal lease).

My little cousin in Chicago mentioned her rent increase but said that her income hasn't gone up since the last renewal. What do the landlords do in that case if when you signed up you were at the 40x rent but now you are below that?

What if you want to move, do you have to downgrade because the rental market has increased?

what is with the stupid, hypothetical, pointless questions puta?

>What if you want to move, do you have to downgrade because the rental market has increased?

Jim, maybe you could help out? For a fee of course.

what is with the answering a question with another stupid, pointless question?

not much that I can think of lower than using an internet forum to attack the wife and children of a person you have never met. you, greensdale, both losers.

how bout we attack your gucci loafer and oliver peoples that we ceased hearing of a few years back? on to new fashion products? brioni now? or maybe old navy?

Hoodia, referring to your previous posts, what rent increase did you end p accepting or did you move? How much per sq ft in monthly rent?

>not much that I can think of lower than using an internet forum to attack the wife and children of a person you have never met. you, greensdale, both losers.

Jim, she's only your wife of convenience based on the facts you've told us. You get a free housekeeper and I guess sex at least once to produce the baby (or are you actually the father - is the baby able to turn a key?), she gets to have a convenient cover story for the INS and will stay with you long enough for the story to be viable.

how is fucking your own toothless mother on your basement sofa cunterberg?

>how is fucking your own toothless mother on your basement sofa cunterberg?

Jim, I've never talked about my mother or my sofa or basement.
Your "wife" on the other hand, you've said plenty about. By the way, does she also do offices?

orifices?

"What if you want to move, do you have to downgrade because the rental market has increased?"

Um, clearly yes. Duh.

she is a silly useless twat, no?

Matt, you'd boot somebody because the rental market went up and their income didn't?

If all boards were like yours, what would elderly people living off their savings do?

Matt + Jim, what is your problem with women?
This seems like a natural question in a market where rents are outpacing incomes.

Matt isn't into women and Jim is only into submissive women- He married his maid.

"If all boards were like yours, what would elderly people living off their savings do?"

Part of retirement planning involves allowing for meeting household expenses during retirement. If you cannot afford the rent, you have to move. It's as simple as that.

"This seems like a natural question in a market where rents are outpacing incomes."

And the natural answer is always rent what you can afford, or make more money.

>And the natural answer is always rent what you can afford, or make more money.

What if you are making the same money but your 8 union dues go up?

"Part of retirement planning involves allowing for meeting household expenses during retirement. If you cannot afford the rent, you have to move. It's as simple as that."

But this hypothetical person *can* meet their household expenses. They just don't have *income* of 40x their rent. One can meet expenses by spending savings, particularly late in life. One cannot just choose to make more money, particularly late in life.

"One cannot just choose to make more money, particularly late in life."

This is why God invented Florida.
