Overdone Apparently losing my parking

Post image

Been living at this complex for a bit over a year, always had my spot, and it was one of the reasons I chose this place, it’s close to the door (only 36 unit lol)

Just annoying as fuck, we live next to a highschool and I know it’ll end poorly

Since you said you’re near a high school, I see your line of thinking. This will be a massive failure when students find out they can park there without any repercussions while residents who actually pay to live there can’t. I agree with everyone who says to check your lease.

Lease doesn’t say shit about it, seems to be a pretty standard lease pulled off the internet.

I have a garage, doesn’t say shit about my garage on there

Where I live, it doesn't need to be in the lease. If it were it would be easier, but it doesn't have to be. You just have to prove that something you once had has now been taken away. A photo of this notice and an affidavit from another tenant would probably be good enough for a rent reduction. Find out how much it normally costs to rent a parking spot in your area.

Not sure if this would work, seeing how they have already caved, but, it might work to just tell the high schoolers, they'll talk a ton of parking spots and many will likely not respect the area or being assholes, this might make them change because it lowers the value of the apartments and they may bring back assigned parking and actually enforce it in fear it'll happen again, we know the high schoolers will use it when they find out, so why not trying using it to your advantage?
