I know what he's doing is illegal, but I don't know how to confront him about it. I really hate confrontation and I'm not good at this sort of thing. I can't afford a 13% increase, which is triple the annual limit where I live. How do I respond to him? (Serious answers please, no Mao larping.)
Can he kick me out if I don't sign a new lease? I really don't want to be forced out. I'm looking for a new pace now but it's almost impossible to find one that fits my needs in this area (also moving without a car is expensive and time consuming).
There is a big housing authority in my city but I thought they were mainly concerned with public housing and people on disability, etc... Would they help out a random person with a problem like this?
Doesn't hurt to ask. They might be able to point you in the right direction.
