My landlord wants to increase our rent at the end of our lease...

Maybe it's just me, but I don't see how raising the rent 50% without significantly increasing the square footage, or otherwise drastically improving the property, is anything short of attempted robbery. Since I don't see him completing an addition in one week, I am assuming he intends only to renovate the existing space to change the use of one room. If that's the case, tell him to go [censored] himself.

Im with you on this one. Basically he is now going to be making more off of the exact same property. And why? Because he made it less comfortable for its tenants? Eff that guy.
