The landlord had told them he wanted to raise the rent to $3,500 and when they complained he decided to raise it to $9,500.
“We know that our building is not rent controlled and this was something we were always worried about happening and there is no way we can afford $9,500 per month," Yumna Farooq said.

if you had your largest expense increase 40% you would “complain” too. anyone would. the landlord turning around and making it 400% instead is a dick move in any language
