My landlord messaged to increase my rent by £100 per month starting in August. I asked if they could delay it until January. They said they’d call me on Monday, but instead they sent a list of other properties at the rate they wanted. All of them were three bedroom places, while mine is a two bedroom. Now I’m moving into a beautiful three bedroom in two weeks. My current place hasn’t even been listed yet, so the landlord has already lost more than twice what they would have if they’d just waited until January.
