I walked in the leasing office of Stuy Town yesterday and the agent showed me an apartment of $3165. I signed the lease on the same day. Then I came back and found the listing price on their website of exact the same apartment is only $3125. The leasing office lied about the rent! Can they do that? Is there any law about this? It's not much, but I really feel betrayed-it's the leasing office!
BTW, do property usually offer discount for 2-year leasing?
You can ask the leasing office why the price online is different, but since you already signed the lease, I don't know why they would have any obligation to give you a different price that what you agreed to. (Are you sure it's the same apartment -- i.e., not a different floor or something? But again, even if it IS exactly the same apartment, you signed the lease.)
I have lived in apartments that gave a "discount" of no increase after year 1 in a 2-year lease. So if you know that rents normally go up every year on those apartments, and you also know that you will live there for the full 2 years, you can save a bit of money in year 2 by signing a 2-year lease.
Are you in NYC? That amount of rent is INSANE to me (I would buy!!), but then, I live in New Hampshire!
That is NYC, also Manhattan. Rents are high, but for the most part renting is cheaper than buying here.
It might be possible prices are adjusted frequently (I see a 1BR up there for 3165 now) but you could have been duped but I am not sure how provable that is.
If the lease is signed by both parties, not not much to do.

And you think that the last $40 of that $3165 is the problem in this scenario?
