Thank you, Trek.

so I'm pretty much hosed. They gave me written notice with the 30 days, and the new rent reflects only a slightly higher rate than what they now have advertised on their website. (which is a whole lot higher than it used to be. market is moving up. good news for all you property owners!)

I'm hosed.

If I stand out on the street corner with a cardboard sign : "Single mom with kid and dog, seeks affordable apartment" like the beggers, will someone come along and hand me a key?

I'm hosed. I just can't pay half my monthly income for rent!
