Depends, the landlord themselves how connected to the property are they- are they in the area or live in the house themselves also. I have no information but how good of tenant have you been ( rent on the 1st/2nd or 5th/6th/7th of the month?) which can be factors. Unfortunately the location can be the most major factor where as realistically that is what the rent in that area is or even possibly more- something to consider also when speaking with the owner is that it is much easier to keep existing tenants than to find new ones and gamble with the unknown. Again that might be difficult to "discuss" if it is a management company.
An example (though this is a few years back in Cambridge) a friend had told the owner that they were going to move because of the price a bit too much after the first year but the owner decided to lower the rent (reasonably of course) so that they would stay. Hope this helps
