Question by joefishal: During a lease renewal can a landlord make you pay more money on a deposit you have already made?
I have just signed a renewal lease that raises my rent by 3%.
My landlord also wants that extra 3% tacked onto the deposit, which I had paid several years ago after moving in. Do you have to also up the price on your deposit? It sounds fishy to me.

Can Rent On A Lease Be Increased During The Lease?

I have a 2 year lease with 9 months left on the lease. The landlord has sent me a letter stating my rent will be increased. There are no provisions in the lease (I have read it carefully) which give the landlord the option to increase the rent. Can the landlord legally raise the rent? What are my options?

I have to renew my lease in June and my sister desperately wants me to help her get an apartment by May. In order to do so I will have to be a co-applicant on her lease. Will I still be able to renew my lease if I do so?
