Then why are you responding to a topic that asks you to share your monthly rent/mortgage payment?
I'd say that "zero" is a viable response.
By the way. My response is "zero" too! I own my two houses outright! LOL Rock on RoaminRed!
By the way, FWIW, if all you renters/buyers would listen to the Dave Ramsey show, YOU could be debt free and have a paid off house too! It's not rocket science. You can listen online. www.daveramsey.com click on "the dave ramsey show" on the nav bar and do yourself a favor and listen.
In Connecticut, $800 per month for a large 3 bedroom on the bottom floor of a 3-family house in a nice neighborhood. Very nice apartment for the price... I think the landlord (an elderly woman) just doesn't realize how much she COULD be getting!
We also own (for now) a house in Florida... a 3 bedroom/1 bath for which the mortgage/insurance/tax payment is $1126 per month. It's up for a short sale, though, so we won't have that much longer.

LL's like that are the one's that are NOT out for the $. In CA. (1981) I rented a(unfurnished) 1 family house, w/s garage, 3/4 acre, @ the foothills of the SanBndo Mnts, for $200.00 a month. The owner lived in MO. I kept the place up to show my respect.
When I moved out (6/1/07) the rent was $350.00 a month.
LL's that aren't in a hurry to jack up the rent, especially when it's not necessary, should be respected and should receive some type of favor in return from the tenant.
Too often, LL's that try and show good faith are taken advandage of.
Bronx, Ny 2 bdrm 839.00 a month its based on your income but the rent goes up about 30.00 a year and about 50.00 with a 2 year lease. I want to relocate to the south but because the job ratings are low in the south. I am in the Medical Administration field.
We have 4 mortgages.
the house we rent out has a $380 mortgage
our old house that I haven't listed yet has a $883 mortgage
our new house has a $1857 mortgage payment
our vacation home has a $2831 motrgage + $520/mo. for security, electric, water, and cable
Grand total: $5971 I think I need a drink.
Fortunately, we have no other debt. We pay off AmEx every month and paid cash for our cars.
