Just last year , my landlord increased our rents from 400k to 500k, and this year again, he has given us another letter of increment, this time from 500K to 800k. it’s a six flats building located in Egbeda. I don’t know what to do, even after making an appeal. Can we get a lawyer to handle this or should we just take it as fate? I am afraid if we take this, he will increase again next year. |

Did you upgrade the property? Because most times na wetin dey give landlords this kind mind. They know you have invested a lot and wouldn’t be willing to let go easily. Also, Egbeda and some areas in Alimosho are now hotcakes. No thanks to the power situation in these areas. The landlords know this. So their rents is closing up to other premium areas on the mainland. |

Headbanger:I mean, did you upgrade your own flat? Old buildings are also in demand because of space. I love old buildings - not dilapidated ones o. Old buildings have bigger rooms and two windows. When landlords knew tenants are supposed to breathe well inside house. I doubt there is anything you can do to him. If you move out, those boys with slippers and cross bags would enter. They have left Island. They are now moving to that your Egbeda. |

Thank you for your input and suggestion, so the Lagos state government are no longer looking into tenant case. |

Headbanger:Did you reach out to them? They look into tenant’s cases, but I doubt they control/regulate pricing. So what is your final answer? |

Headbanger:Leave the house for him or pay. Harsh but truth....Its his house, why do you want to get a lawyer on something that's not your own. He also has the legal right to evict you at his will... as far as he is yet to receive house rent from you. |
