I Moved in to an apartment with three other guys 18 months ago.. (in hoboken).. and we have the guy who lived there already told us that the rent is 2700/month... now, we just found out that the rent is only 2200/month... In addition to this, he also gave us papers to sign saying tht it was the lease, and it wasnt... it was only an addendum to the original lease, but stated nothing about any $$ amounts... so he continued to tell us that the rent was the same... He has basically been takling our money and lining his own pockets!! He doesnt own the place, and he never told us hat he was subletting the place to us...
Our names ARE on the lease, but he has never given it to us for us to sign in fear that we will see the actual rent price... The landlord has never said anything, bc he is obviously getting his check everymonth. WHAT CAN I DO????
