Rent increases are nothing new, but one Tacoma man says he was shocked over the one he is facing, calling it "ruthless."

Terrance Parsons has lived at Manitou Park Apartments in South Tacoma for the past five years. He says his rent is around $825 a month, including utilities.

"They want to raise it to $1,375," Parsons said.

A 60-day notice of the rent increase signed by LandlordSolutions on behalf of the owner says $75 of the $1,375 is for utilities. They also tell tenants that they could get up to a $100 discount off the monthly rent if they sign a new 12-month lease.

"I understand property goes up, but for two years, that’s an extensive amount," Parsons said.
