Before you issue a rent increase
- Confirm the tenancy type and current rent terms.
- Check your timing and notice requirements before setting dates.
- Document the new amount and effective date clearly.
- Keep a service record and copy of the notice.
Record-keeping tips
Keep a timeline with: issued date, effective date, notice copy, and tenant communication notes. This is especially helpful if there is any later challenge.
