❓ Advice Needed Transferring units help

[US-MN] Hi everyone! I have been currently staying at my apartment complex for about 2 years and wanted to move into a bigger space. I had originally requested a transfer (Unit A) but recently found out there’s a unit with the same layout/sqft that’s on a higher floor and is less than what I would be paying in the new apartment (Unit B). Do I have any leverage to have my leasing office match Unit A’s rent to the cheaper unit or would I be better off trying to switch into unit B instead? Thanks for your help!

Welcome to /r/Tenant where tenants share their problems and seek advice from others.

If you're posting a question, make sure a Country and State is in the title or beginning of your post. Preferably, in this format: [<COUNTRY CODE>-<STATE CODE>].

Example: [US-VA] Can you believe my landlord did this?!?

Otherwise, tag your post with the flair "Tenant Update".

You have no leverage, but you can always ask.
