My apartment that i've been living in for about 3 years now was just sold to a new landlord. He gave me a new lease agreement which will increase my rent from $950 to $1100. Also he told me he was taking away the late fee period. so if i don't pay on the first he'll tack on another $20. Also that my truck will be towed if I don't get it registered. I shrugged this off and clicked on craigslist to find another place to live.
The problem is my neighbors who lives in the exact same unit received a different lease agreement, their rent would not change as long as they signed a new year lease. These options were never given to me. When I confronted him about it he said he messed up and that he would offer me $1000 a month if I signed a new year lease agreement. That's what he said, "I messed up".
I am wondering if this is racial profiling because I'm Native American and my neighbors are white. I guess I should add that I've never drank and I don't party. I also have only been late on rent once in the 3 years I've lived here. Basically the prefect tenant. I also should add that my neighbor sent me the email he received with the new lease agreement that I never got. So I have the proof.
