Call landlords bluff on rent increase?

[Dan44]

Hey everyone. I know there are a couple people on this forum that are landlords and may be able to give some advise.

Me an my Gal inquired about an apartment 2 months ago and they told us the rent would be 1676 for 12 months. However they had a 2 month lease option for 2 months for 2100 per month. We decided to do the 2 month option to test out the area first.

Our lease is up soon and we got a renewal letter for and now they want to charge 1806 for a 12 month lease. We wrote the leasing agent a email asking if they can honor the original price we was told but in so many words she said no, that the rent pricing "fluctuates" on a day to day basis.

Do you guys think I should call her bluff and tell her we will not be able to afford it and see if she gets back to us before we actually start to move and drop the price? Or is it unlikely that she will budge on the price?

It pisses me off because I feel she may have did it to us because she seen since we moved in that I drive a newer BMW and is maybe taking advantage of that. Or I could be wrong and they do it to everyone, Idk. Just the thought is pissing me off and I needed to vent a little. They know we probably dont want to go through the process of moving again also and are more likely to pay the increase.
