[quote=Anonymous][quote=sarah1513][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You don't need to tell him but you also shouldn't expect a break simply because you are having twins.  If the rent is too expensive for you then you should move to a different place. [/quote]

you live on the hill - you could move to, say, rockville and rent for less money. welcome to the commute/size/schools/budget dilemma.[/quote]

We're fine with the schools--big supporters of public schools--and not able to move at this time, especially not so far out. The fact of moving in and of itself is an expense we couldn't take on now for one thing.

I[b]'m not EXPECTING the landlord not to raise our rent, just expressing a hope.[/b] The current rent is not too expensive (other than by the standard that ALL rent in DC is too expensive) but the longer we can go without a rent increase the better off we will be. (Duh.)

We have had money saved toward potentially buying a place at some point, but that will now all be spent down as we supplement our monthly income to cover daycare and other child expenses. [/quote]

You having twins is not his problem.  If he typically raised the rent around this time, you should not expect him to give you a break.  And  yes, I think you expect him to give you a break.  Otherwise, why post?  [/quote]
