<prompt> Human: Hi!This subreddit has a lot of tips for negotiations with car dealers, but not that much for apartment rental negotiations. And I am looking for advice regarding negotiations with landlord. We are living in apartment complex in NJ, have lease for one year and it will end soon. Landlord offered two options for us: one is 6.537; more, if we are leasing for two years, and another option is 8.737; more if leasing for one year. This is more than I expected, as I was under implression that about 3.537; is fair.Actually I cant get anything comparable to that building in my area, but there are few more expensive options little bit closer to Manhattan. In my area I can get apartments in some small building which will cost me about 7037;-7537; less than my current lease, but will lack same level of comfort. So I am actually looking for a way how to stay in current apartment and renew my lease for a little bit lower price, than landlord wants - not 637;-837; more, but maybe only 337;-437; more.How should I act?Also - please share you stories how you negotiated with your landlord.  <response>: Actually I cant get anything comparable to that building in my areaSuck it up and pay the increase. You dont really have leverage in this negotiation.
