My landlord wants to raise my rent and have me start paying for the gas and electric. I haven't decided how much I want to negotiate--any advice from you all would be, by me, appreciated... even if it's just at the level of pro/anti/renter/landlord vitriol. It's a 7% increase, which is double the legal limit for one year, but I've had the same rent for 4 years now so that's legal. But the gas and electric is weird... and there's more than a few repairs that are way overdue. More details in the responses...
