my current lease will be up on april 1st and i would like to move to a more affordable apartment...i found these really cute apartments near where i live now and the rent will be based off of my income. how would i go about figuring my rent for each month? will the landlord take a percentage of my income or what? how could i figure out about how much it will be?

Ask the landlord. He is the only one that can tell you what he will charge.

Talk to the landlord and find out. These are federal subsidized housing. Which means they can not rent with somoene more than x amount of income a year. But if its under y you pay this much and if its under z you pay this much. Different based on where you live. Talk to the housing office or lanlord of this appartment complex.

your best bet is to ask the landlord what it will be, or the scale they use.
\I would say in that situation, your rent is based on a scale from a percentage. lower to higher, based on the cost of living in that area. regardless, it will be as high as they can possibly get without totally destroying you financially.
good luck

not sure, wherever ive rented, it was a standard amount; no
income based stuff.
I read somewhere that ones rent should be 30% of their annual salary. If thats the case, than if u make 30 thousand a year,
30,000x30% is 9,000, if you divide that by 12 months, that gives you a rent amount of 750 a month.

You don't want to ask your future landlord?
