ummm. if you continue to pay 1700, the management will be laughing at you. id be laughing at you.
i predict you can negotiate this one if you tell them you’re moving.
if you’re too shy to tell them their position is dumb, i might even just send them a check for the market amount, tell them that’s the new deal, month to month, send youeither c ofnirmatory lease with a new market rent clause upon cashing the check or send me back my check and im out of here. id be pretty surprised if they didn’t cash the new check.
