Hello- Does anyone know how lease renewals work for rent control apartments? I signed a lease on April 2007- April 2008. However for the past 2 years I received an annual apartment registration stating: Lease in effect April 1, 2008, Began on 12/31/07 expires on: 12/31/08 and the same thing for the year after, which states that our lease ends 12/31/2010. What does that mean? How is it that if my original leas was signed in April, that now it ends in December. I know that the rent control raises have been approved as of 2010 but is this stuff legit- or am I being screwed over?
I would appreciate any kind of input. thanks
