EconProf, I agree with you and I did shop around. My problem is that have a dog and many places will not even consider one. So, yes I was willing to pay a little more for her. (She is worth it). I am ready to move and no way would I pay that kind of rent for where I am at. I’ve seen a number of places go up by a substantial amount (not as crazy as mine) lately. It seems a bit of an odd move at this time, but I am not a landlord and not as savvy on this stuff. I have seen lots of these places with increased rents listed month after month and I do see more and more rental signs in my hood every week. Of coures, this is a pretty subjective assessment, so I was wondering if anyone else was seeing this.
P.S. No 600lb tables or wine collections yet. Want a decent place first. 🙂
