Holcomb just extended the moratorium to mid-August. I am waiting until end of August to give notice of increases and I am giving 30 day notice to 2 more. I think our dear governor will keep pushing the moratorium out. He is being sued by 3 landlords, however. --216.23.xxx.xx

Are the eviction moratoreums over in your state? i wouldnt increase rents until the moratorium is over so tenants dont just get mad for taking advantage of them during the pandemic and stop paying rent --104.229.xxx.xxx

We typically send them out every April 1st, didn’t this year but are seriously considering getting them in the mail this month. Especially if that gubment money starts re flowing. --66.169.xxx.xxx

Around here, inventory for rental housing is LOW. So if the rent is raised, tenants wouldn’t have many other options besides paying the increase. --73.177.xxx.xx

I would advise everyone to get theIr Rent increase now. --67.43.xxx.xxx

Just mailed out several the end of July and will start seeing the increase for September. --173.216.xxx.xx

Sent out 3 this month to take effect in 30 days. Rule is never give out a mass rent increase in the same comples - I only do 1 increase for one tenant per complex at a time. Unless you like rent strikes. Heard that is how rent control started in California - LL in SF gave large rent increases to everyone in his luxury apartment tower, which included the Mayor and most of the City Council as tenants . . . can you say Emergency rent control ordinance ASAP? --201.140.xxx.xx

I am holding off on increasing rent for a couple of reasons. I have some vacancies coming up where I will increase rent so that's a good thing. and I don't want to create a situation that makes a tenant consider moving. I'm comfortable with the ones who are renewing and it's more trouble to screen for new tenants with the changes in the laws. Plus times are tough and some of my tenants were furloughed and went back to work. The extra benefit running out is wild card. One who is not renewing, says it's the loss of the extra 600/ wk. Moving back to be w/ family and save money. --24.194.xxx.xxx

I give all of my tenants 60 day notices of all rent increases. I find this gives them some time to look around & realize how "lucky" they are to be in one of my units. Since the bulk of my leases end in the summer, I normally would have sent them out the beginning of April or May. However with all that's going on this year especially with how easily our governor keeps extending the eviction moratorium, I've held off on sending the notices until September 1 at the earliest for a November 1 start date. --71.174.xxx.xx

I have held off on the rent increases on the market tenants because we can’t evict right now. Effectively you would need to terminate their existing contract and offer a new lease to raise the rent. Currently I’ve can’t tell anyone that they have to move, so if they don’t agree to the increase you don’t get it. --66.30.xx.xx

Now we only have one "working the system" that home has the tenant paying half the first-- 25% the 10th and balance the 20th. --99.103.xxx.xxx

$20/month * 12 months * 10 units = $2,400. Big difference for the land lord. Tiny difference for each tenant. --107.216.xxx.xxx

We also agreed via ballot to raise property taxes for the schools. I believe the increase goes into effect in January 2021, which will be collected in November/December 2021. So, I'll be good to do a new round next spring of everything. Most will go up by $5 or $10, but a couple of them will go up by $25 a month. --67.43.xxx.xxx

I still have a lot to learn though. --73.120.xx.xxx

you are doing good 6x6 with auto increase. what is your % on current rent (?) I do 3% on rentals & rents to new renters 5% --107.77.xxx.xxx

I now realize that I should have done a % increase instead of a $ amount increase in the lease because as time goes by with the same tenants the actual % will decrease with the $ amount increase remaining the same. --73.120.xx.xxx

We only have 4 units now. 3 turned over and we got good rent increases. The 4th we issued a modest increase with no problem. --71.161.xxx.xxx
