If you think your rent is too high, but a mortgage and move outside your means, a third option: negotiate a reduction in your rent.
This is what you should do.
1. Not wait until the expiration of your contract. Ask any reduction before the renegotiation of your lease.
2. Study the contract. Know your rights and obligations as well as the rate at which drew up the contract and fixed rent, and if there are clauses that prevent a rebate request.
3. Know the area. Research the rents in your area. If floors are the same characteristics as yours, but at a lower price, you have a point in your favor: show your home.
4. Law of supply and demand. Find out how quickly vacant apartments are rented in your area. If there is high demand, you have oil. If not, your landlord is likely to lose income prefer to have the empty apartment for months.
5. The profile of your home. Is it someone with a single floor or a whole? Does the rent of your apartment will be used to pay your mortgage or single income? Do all your floors are rented or passed through a delicate economic situation? Take advantage of their weaknesses by asking for a rebate.
6. Have an ace up his sleeve. You can go with a flat data available, where your upcoming move if you can not reach an agreement.
7. Traded on the floor. Citalopram at home, and that negotiation will elapse while it is clear that you have kept the apartment in good condition and you’re a good tenant.
