(I apologize in advance for the complexity of this situation and for invading someone else's post) I currently pay $895 for rent and that's month-to-month. When I first moved into my 2br (I used to live in a 1br in the same complex) I signed a 6 month lease and got $10 off a month. I wasn't sure if I was going to stay in the area for long so I just let the lease go month-to-month instead of resigning. Well, I was browsing online and saw that new tenants can have my same apt for $885 a month and that doesn't include the discounts for signing a 6 or 12 month lease. I spoke to my front office about it, and they basically said that when they don't have a lot of people looking at apts, the property owners change the rent month-to-month on the website to attract new renters. In order for me to get the "going rate" online, I would have to sign a new lease EVERY month. They told me that usually in Jan, Feb and March, rent sometimes goes as far down as $855 a month, and I would get an additional $20 off a month by signing a year lease. I'm just confused as to why I'm paying more for a month-to-month lease when (if I work this out in my head) I could be paying $885 for the same month-to-month agreement. Nowhere on the website does it state that the $885 is if I signed a 6 or 12 month lease. Granted I know it's only $10 a month, but I think I'm more annoyed at the principle of the idea.-Jessie-
