Document background
A Raise Rent Notice is a crucial document used when landlords wish to increase the rent on their property in England and Wales. It must be issued in accordance with statutory requirements, providing adequate notice periods (typically one month for periodic tenancies) and containing specific information about the current and proposed new rent. The notice ensures compliance with the Housing Act 1988 and protects both landlord and tenant interests. It should be used when rent increases are permitted under the original tenancy agreement and must follow any prescribed timing restrictions.
