You don't have to pay it and you don't have to move. There is a small increase percentage permitted each year and it ties to the cost of living increase. It's never over 10%. The law is on your side here. They are definitely trying to "gringo" you. Tell her you require an official receipt with her "RFC number" on it for your next month's (and future months) rent payment. Many landlords don't pay the required taxes on rental income, so are reluctant to give receipts. Letting her know that you are aware of the laws should straighten things out until you are ready to move on your own time. Good luck and stand firm.Canexicananoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8490844038707628114.post-90826072083585373672009-04-22T11:04:00.000-05:002009-04-22T11:04:00.000-05:00Chrissy - Thanks! Yes, the dogs will love having a larger space, especially after living at my friend's big house while I was recuperating.<br /><br />Calypso - no worries. My rent was3500 pesos for a very small one bedroom, fully furnished apartment and included all utilities, AC, maid service, internet, phone and cleaning of towels/linens. This morning I saw another fully furnished apartment just 2 blocks from the beach that is also 3500 pesos but is 2-3 times the size of my current apt, has a huge fenced yard and includes utilities, AC, wireless internet, cable TV, free drinking water and ice. On a side note, there are many 2 -3 bedroom good size houses for rent (unfurnished) from 2500 pesos and up, depending on the neighborhoodNew Beginningshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14298996072133419532noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8490844038707628114.post-8055655323941035442009-04-21T15:39:00.000-05:002009-04-21T15:39:00.000-05:00I hope everything goes willwith the bigger place. the doggies will be happier.Chrissy and Keithhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00401701589592600309noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8490844038707628114.post-77052301253102766062009-04-21T15:14:00.000-05:002009-04-21T15:14:00.000-05:00Bummer about the apartment fee - in the interest of science - would you be willing to share the fees before and after?<br /><br />My life is an open book - drives my wife crazy - so if this is too personal - forget I asked.Calypsohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02705486544074674388noreply@blogger.com
