51 The rent increase process Let`s take the example of a landlord who wants to increase the rent on a property. 1. Check the Rental Housing Act 2010: Section 41 states that rent cannot be increased during a fixed-term contract unless this increase was stipulated in the agreement at the beginning of the lease. The tenant must write 60 days on any increase in rent, indicating the amount of the increase, and the date it will come into effect. 2. Inform the tenant in writing Given that 4 days for the port must be authorized, the landlord must in fact communicate to the tenant 9 weeks of written notification of a rent increase 3. If the tenant does not object, the increase will take effect on the due date. 4. If the tenant objects to the rent increase on the grounds that it is excessive, he must do so in writing in court no later than 30 days after the rent increase has been notified. 5. The tenant may decide to evacuate the property during which he must write 21 days, but in any case not before the deadline for a temporary lease.
The court will also want evidence to show that the rent increase is fair, taking into account current rents for similar real estate, so that the preparation of a recent market analysis would be necessary. In this case, if the landlord wishes to fight the tenant and demand the increase, the administrator must ensure that all documents used to analyze and evaluate the case to assist the lessor when the tenant takes him to court are in order.
