Great place to live
Former Tenant
Pros:
Excellent & friendly building staff, nice building and apartments have great views
Cons:
Equity Residential increases the rent by a lot each year for existing tenants which makes moving to a new unit in the same building less expensive than staying in your own unit, which is quite backwards. There also are monthly fees that add up and are not typical of other rental agreements
Advice to owner:
Do not increase existing tenant rent by double digit %s each year when the unit would not rent for that much to a new renter
