Now, there is a question on the internet: Can a landlord raise your rent during the lease term? For example: one more year.

Is this possible or not? If so, what is the point of signing a contract? Let's see what people are saying.

If you have a contract, the landlord does not have the right to raise the rent, but there is a loophole in the contract. If you have a one-year contract and there is an adaptation period of at least 6 months, then the landlord can raise the rent if you want to stay after 6 months (if there is no such adaptation period, the landlord does not have the right to raise the rent).

Unless it is known that your contract is unpaid and not legally binding.

Generally, you should not change the rent during the contract period.

Unless the economic climate has really changed significantly, then discuss the rent increase with the tenant. If the tenant feels that the new rent is unacceptable, give them at least 2-3 months to find another place to move.

I've never raised the rent during my contract until now. But the current economic climate is really stressing me out, and I don't know what will happen next year. Will it cost more than $10 for a meal and $300 to $500 for utilities?

You can't raise the rent if you have a legal lease.

This can be fun! My landlord wants to increase the rent from $1,800 to $3,000 and if you don't agree he will just refund your deposit and find someone else to live with.

The landlord can give you one month to move out and find another tenant at the current market rate if you have been renting for 6 months.
