A Denton, Texas tenant named Skylar Ashton (skyyashton) is preparing to sue her landlord, the Martino Group, over unexplained rent increases and mystery charges that have added hundreds of dollars to her monthly bill. Ashton, a content creator, has been documenting her experience on TikTok, where her video has already gained over 270,000 views.
According to Brobible, her base rent is $1,350 a month, which usually comes to about $1,450 with standard fees like water. But starting last October, her total bill began climbing without any explanation. By December, she was paying between $1,500 and $1,800, and by March, her rent had reached $1,900, a jump of $450 in just five months.
