Message: [QUOTE="IthacaMatt, post: 1995654, member: 405"] The landlords are psycho up there. They think of it as a speculator's market, where they force out tenants, and then try to get people to pay off the old tenant to buy their lease, to get into the building under the terns of the old lease to take advantage of the "great" rent deal that other person got. A bunch of them do this. They call it key money. And then the landlord tries to go back and renegotiate the terms of the lease that you just paid $50,000 to step into the shoes of that previous tenant. I tell my clients to avoid going up there. It's not just Jacobs. There are a couple other, flat out terrible landlords up there who do this. [/QUOTE]
