Daily Challenge……Home / Finances

‘My landlady has put the rent up and I feel it is unjustly high.’
I am feeling…..Indignant / Financially Frustrated / Taken Advantage of

Step 1. (How I would like to feel…)
Fair Exchange / Financially In Control / Respected

Step 2. (Quality Questions for self…)
Is she being unreasonable?
Is it negotiable and if so, how do I address it?
Am I prepared to look for alternative accomodation?

Step 3. (Practical steps leading to Positive Results…)
Do your research….find out if it’s a fair rent.
Approach the Landlady to negotiate (Use Shelley’s Script if stuck on what to say).
Decide if it’s time to move on or not and if you are prepared to make that move.
Remember you very often have choices………..you just have to work them out!
