Everyone says signing a two year lease is better, but my rent increase doubles on a two year lease, so .. why?

I suppose it gives the landlord a way to weed out up front people who are so marginal financially that they might not even come up with the rent in the first year. Scare away those who cannot afford more. Although I would think credit history checks would work just as well as high rents contracted for the future. For you , I would say there is probably no advantage.

Signing a two year lease is not always better, because not all leases are the same. Generally landlords offer discounts for signing a longer lease, but that is not always the case.Comment
