good news atlast  |
|

I got good news, you guys know the pressure I have been under about moving and afraid that I would be on the street on the lst of july,
then the landlord said he couldn't leave because I told I couldn't find a place, and therefore my lease had to continue,
but he wanted 100 dollars more a month and I said I could not pay that which I couldn't and so we were under so much stress, that I was literally too ill even to stay up during the day,
he said he would think about lowering the amount he wanted, but he never got back to me,
well tonight he did come back with an offer instead of 100 dollars more it was gonna 30 dollars more and I said that was too much. And so he said okay for this year he will leave the rent the same as it is and he will fix the back yard I am so amazed and happy.
Next year he said to be prepared for the big raise since he is not going to do any repairs this year it will be all done next year.
I will worry about next year when next year comes, but for now I am happy.
Finally after three full months of stress I can relax again.
so what is going on in your lives, anything bad or good happen to you recently?

| 51. rckayla09 (81) | 6 months ago | This is wonderful news (even though you already told me in a private e-mail lol)!!!! I'm so happy my daily prayers for you were answered and that you were finally able to sleep; I know how awful sleep deprivation is! I read someone else's alarmist comment to your great news, and I agree with what you wrote back to the person. Worrying in advance about what the landlord is going to do when your lease is up 'next year' is ridiculous and unnecessary just now but guess some people can't help being negative to another person's happy news. As you know, I'm pretty busy getting my fur baby Cordy adjusted to our new fur baby Nikko. Btw, I read your e-mail and thanks so much for your suggestions on how to do this in a less-stressful manner! Bill and I started to do some of your suggestions yesterday and it's working:) Although my Cordy is still a little afraid of little Nikko (which I do know is Cordy's problem), he is venturing upstairs more now and when he does we make sure to put Nikko in a separate room so that Cordy can slowly get to know Nikko by his smell behind a closed door and vice-versa. Will keep you updated on our progress. Also busy answering new subscriber requests to my e-zine and, believe it or not, new submissions from my writers. So this month is going to fly by and before I know it I'll be publishing again:) I'm truly happy for you that this bad situation with the landlord worked out and you're staying in your apartment!

winterose (17628) | 6 months ago | I am glad the suggestions are working, yes eventually cordy will not be scared and at least tolerate the dog, he may never love him but at lease tolerate him. don't forget to make sure you have the dog smell on your hands and then pet cordy, so he can get used to it faster.

| 52. heather177 (57) | 6 months ago | Well I say when the time comes that he wants to up the price by 100 I would take legal action. Because not only will he do this to you but he will do it to everyone. He is taking advantage of people and treating them like they are stupid. Thats like a apartment I lived in. They wouldnt make proper repairs and we took it. But come to find out if they dont make the repairs then we dont haft to pay our rent. We go to court and file a judgement against them and until repairs are made we give the court our rent. When the repairs are made then they give them there rent that I gave to them. The more people that doesnt let these places take advantage of them the less they will do that stuff. But its good he gave you longer. But he also knows he cant do anything about it. unless you are not paying your rent.

winterose (17628) | 6 months ago | nobody paid that rent increase here and he knew he couldn't enforce it he would go to court and lose,
yes here too for the repairs you can put the money in escrow as they call it,
but the repairs he is talking about is to the building not my apartment per se,
it will cost him 25 thousand dollars, he wants to put up everyone's rent by 100 dollars for that.
but that is illegal by law he can only charge 4 percent after the repairs are done, not before like he wanted to do now, and next year everyone in the building will contest it again.
but my issue is I really do want to move for health reasons.

| heather177 (57) | 6 months ago | Well thats good you guys are keeping right up on the law with this guy. But I hope you find you somewhere when it is time.

53. happy6162 (2246) | 6 months ago | that is good news about you not losing your house. you will have time now to figure out the raise that will happen next year. for the next few months you need to just relax and take it easy.

|
|
winterose (17628) | 6 months ago | the raise will be illegal and I won't pay it next year either.

54. PoetryPose (1155) | 6 months ago | Its hard to be under so much stress...I am glad things worked out for you and your more happy for the moment...Its awful that he wanted to raise the rent that high on you in the first place...
| |

|
|
winterose (17628) | 6 months ago | he will pull the same stunt next year and I will have to contest it again if I have not found a place to stay. But I cannot do anything about it until next year though.

| 55. liaqatali (11) | 6 months ago | I am happy for you. I hope you stay in the house. Keep your spirits up. I will post the responses to help you as much as I can. With the bad economy, your landlord should help you. Are you working or looking for a job?

winterose (17628) | 6 months ago | thanks hon, I am disabled not working I am on a limited income,
the landlord is wanting illegal rent hikes and nobody in the building will pay that amount, nobody, we will all fight it again next year.

56. jayman32 (192) | 6 months ago | hello, your going to be in the same situation next year if you dont do something now. i know its easy for me to say but you need to think of something that is easy & or cheap to make & sell it on ebay(amoung other things), it only has to be $10 a week but dont touch it for a year, you will be very greatfull next year i can feel it but you must start now, please winterrose start now. you will be surprised how easy it is to turn something out of nothing & sell it on ebay cheaply..see what you can come up with-keep it simple:)

|
winterose (17628) | 6 months ago | the rent hike is illegal and I wont' pay it next year either, he has got to go by the law
and the law stops me or him from doing anything until next year, our agreement has been made and settled for this year,
and I will not pay an illegal rent hike nobody in this building will.

winterose (17628) | 6 months ago | yep this awful one day a year to move is disgusting here, and I have never in my life experienced not finding a place like this year.
seniors places and all that there is a waiting list, I don't know when they will give me one, maybe 1 year maybe 10 these things you put your name on the list for but you can't plan on getting one until they actually accept you.
great for the supplements, that is wonderful,

58. nanajanet (2658) | 6 months ago | That is great news!! Sometimes God just wants us to be patient and things will come when we really need them.
We need to replace my husband's car that died and we were able to sell trees off of our property and the money will come in the nick of time. We have had several times in our life, as you, where we were close to being without a home and God sent us help in time.

|
winterose (17628) | 6 months ago | yes he did come through for us in the nick of time,
I wish you all the best

60. saumitrakumar (1731) | 6 months ago | You are fortunate.The Goddess of good fortune smiled on you and saved you from being moving on the streets homeless.But in my life i don't feel myself that fortunate at least now.My practical exams are round the corner and i have to work hard for it.I may have to leave mylotting for a few days.My father is now struggling with lack of money that seems to be continuing for one month.But i think these are only usual ups and downs of life.They are transient and will disappear sooner or later.I too may become as fortunate as you.
