we entered into our apartment 2 years ago with a total of 6 people in a duplex. 3 months ago new tenants moved in and the problems started. prior to the new tenants the agreement was since it has shared utilities, the utilities are to be devide 50/50. once the new tenants started questioning our landlord as to the nuber of people, they then refused to pay 50%.The landlord then told us that we have to start paying 75% of the utilities. A month later those same tenants started complaining as to the number of occupants in our apartment. so our landlord then decide to increase our rent by an additional $50 without any written notice. we ageed anyway. Here it is 60 days later, now he wants to change the aditional $50 to $150 again without any written notice. All maintenance request have yet to be done by the landlord. so far we have been waiting one year for him to do something.most maintenance issues have been addressed by me with the landlord only paying for materials and not for the time including the replacement of a bedroom ceiling. this was do to faulty water pipes.
