    How much is the rent at the long beach (olympic station) at this time?

    I've been living at the long beach for two years. Now the lease ends and the landlord wants to raise the rent to 22,000 (approximately a 21% raise). The landlord told me that some higher floor apartments at the long beach rent at 22,000 to 23,000. Not sure if this is true. So anybody knows how much the rent is at the long beach at this time. Need a little bit of data to negotiate with the landlord.

    Thanks

    Hi, I live next door to you in the Cullinan. Arent 3-4 towers of Long beach still empty?
    HArd to say what typical rent is unless you state how many rooms and sq footage.

    Oh, I live on the 36th floor. It's a 2-room apt and the gross area is less than 800 square foot. Thanks

    Walk into any local estate agent and they will be able to pull up the last few pages of transactions for you, for your building. Then look and compare the floors/sizes and you'll have a very good idea of the current going rate.

    I would expect any decent landlord to be doing the same...
