However, if the tenant's rent is the only rent being increased in the building, and is being increased dramatically, the tenant could have an argument that the landlord is constructively evicting him or her (they are trying to evict
the tenant in a roundabout way).
The moral of this story,
in a
roundabout kind of
way, is that while not always,
in many cases it is cheaper to keep a paying
tenant in place, but doing so costs money.
