Question about Free Month offers on rentals

Hello PFC. I’m currently in the market looking for an apartment in the Mississauga/Toronto area. What I’m noticing is a lot of these apartments being advertised are offering a free month(s) bonus or even a free year of parking as a perk to move in. With the prices falling in some areas, what are the possible catch 22’s of these free offers?Question 2: When prices start to rise again will these management companies be able to hike prices (hidden fees or other ways) to recoup all these discounts?What are your thoughtS? via /r/PersonalFinanceCanada https://ift.tt/39vuNQ5
