Mine was hiked $375 over the last three years. Yeah, the landlords are pushing a lot of people onto the street. Mao's making a lot more sense to me these days.

... you really are quite annoying. Did you forget the coffee today? Maybe a nap? Can you maybe stop harassing me over an opinion? I don't give a crap about you calling it a three decker, you do you. I call it a triple and I'm not changing my dialect for you. Good riddance.

Our assessment increase this year was like +40K on a 1300 sf condo, this compounded for multiple units would be very painful. Yiiiiikes!

Craigslist I would say is not even a normal place to look for apartments. Half of them are scammers trying to steal your information, the other half, the place is probably not up to code and your roommates are a family of rats living in the walls.

It was a legit Irish pub experience unlike any I’ve had outside of Ireland. Used to eat breakfast there on Sundays to catch Premier League matches. It was often just us and Paul the Publican. A rare thing these days.

Sadly, the increase is just being passed to the tenant as everything has gone up. Friend of mine has some utilities included units. Between the price hike for utilities and property tax increase, after expenses, they are making less today than they were 2 years ago and will need to raise the rents as leases expire. They may be currently operating at a loss after all the bills are paid.
During Covid some tenants did not pay rent, but landlord still had to pay the utilities and mortgage. I am thinking some of the increases are to offset this loss.
I agree that there is a problem, as everything has gone up double digits, except people's income. I see both sides of the rent increase.

If the arcade return to senders me, then I'll think about it. Coney has a horrible game selection

I moved out last year to Virginia. It’s snowed once for a quarter inch this year so far. I pay $1500 for rent, a 2 bed 2 bath with 900sqft. I feel for all of you still there

I used to be an aquatics pro and one of the first things the guy who did my certification talked about was just how annoying it is to keep hot tubs clean because they require constant upkeep. Suffice it to say that even a lot of expensive hotels don't keep their hot tubs clean enough for my comfort.

Materia Arcade, its small but a really awesome place with really nice staff. They make the experience better and help out with anything, there’s buying, selling, console cleanings i think they do battery swaps and all the machine run off tokens which is pretty fun

It's called Botany Bay Properties. They have multiple properties around Worcester but I know Caroline st is 1 beds.
From what I know the rents not as price gouged as other places, so good luck!
