I rented an apartment here in the mid-1990's during my days in law school. I then rented a 2 bedroom 1 bath apartment about 2 years ago. About 8 months into my lease, I asked to, and was approved for, a larger unit with 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. I fully completed my lease term and asked if I could sign up for a 1 bedroom apartment for a new lease. They termed it a "transfer" and "denied" my request for a transfer, instead telling me that I either had to renew my lease on the 2 bedroom, 2 bath that I no longer need or be stuck with a higher rented rate, month to month. I've never been treated with less regard for my business and am now exploring other communities in the area so that I can move into a 1 bedroom as that is all I need at present. Bottom line, they'll "let" you upgrade but won't "let" you downgrade. Matt B.
