Document background
The Landlord's Notice Proposing A New Rent is a crucial document in Danish property management, used when a landlord wishes to implement a rent increase for their property. This notice must be issued in accordance with the Danish Rent Act (Lejeloven) and the Housing Regulation Act (Boligreguleringsloven), which set strict requirements for rent increases in Denmark. The document is required whenever a landlord plans to increase rent beyond standard index-based adjustments, whether due to market value changes, property improvements, or increased operating costs. It must include specific mandatory information such as the current rent, proposed new amount, effective date, and justification for the increase. The notice must be served with proper notice periods (typically 3 months) and must provide tenants with information about their right to object to the proposed increase through the Housing Tribunal.
