Re: Apartment transfer

Hello. Whether the tenant is entitled to an

explanation of why he or she is being denied the

upgrade will depend, to a great extent, on whether the tenant has a written lease. There may be specific language in the lease regarding this issue. On the other hand, my suspicions are raised when there is a denial of this sort

as far as landlord/tenant issues are concerned.

This is a matter that I would be interested in

handling, but I presume there are other facts

which would allow me to give a more complete answer.
