I just signed a new one year lease two months ago for my apartment, my previous lease ended at the end of the year. My rent went up $30 to $685 - that is what is on the lease that I signed for another year starting in january. I went to go pay my rent this month and it says $755. When I called them they said my first lease must have been a misprint and they wanted me to sign a new lease with the NEW increase. Now - they had me sign the new lease 2 months ago (they give you 2 months so if you aren't going to sign a new lease you can have time to find another place) and now they are saying if I don't sign a new lease I have to move out ASAP, which wouldn't be easy since I'd have to find a new place and get everything moved.

Can they just break the lease we signed and make me sign a new one because they jacked the price up since I signed that lease? I don't believe it was a "misprint" because it lists the price several times on the lease -including the total for a year and we even talked about the increase when I signed the new lease.

What can I do?
