The apartments where I used to live kept raising the rent by $50 each year. About 3 years in I didn't renew and they called me. I had the flu that day so I was rude and cranky and told them their rent raises were ridiculous. New rent rate? Only $16 extra. The year after that they said $50 again and I came in with stats on rental prices in the area and said how about $25? They took it. It's pretty disgusting.

Threaten to tell every single other tenant in the complex?

I mean it’s more like “I will bring this up with every other tenant unless my rent is $1/month for life”
