How much is a landlord allowed to increase the rent per annum?

Answer 1

The landlord can increase the rent as long as there is not a contract saying that he/she won't do so (ie- the landlord couldn't raise the rent during the tenure of your lease).

Answer 2

Your rent can be raised any amount the landlord wants to so long as you are not in a lease agreement and a minimum of 30-day notice is given to you of the rental increase.

Answer 3

My parents rent out 3 houses, and normally go up $50 month every 2-3 years.

Answer 4

That depends on where you live. Rent control ordinances are enacted at the city/county level, so you need to contact the Rent Board in your city to find out.

Answer 5

It depends on the State and City where you live. In most places, the sky's the limit. If you don't like the rent, move.

Answer 6

Landlords are allowed to set any price they feel like when your lease is up for renewal. If it is too high then move.
