Dear Ji,

As far as I know a landlord can not simply raise the rent of housing to have a tenant leave premises. This is illegal and what you probably should do is consider legal advice on the matter. Where do you live? In Canada at least one is not allowed to do such an act.

(REPLY) Yes, and in many states in the USA there is a thing called "rent control. " You need professional legal advice.
