Rent increases can be based on various legal grounds. Lease agreements may already contain provisions for this. However, the legal basis for this should also be considered. The local comparative rent can be a limiting factor. However, modernization work can also justify a rent increase.

The local comparative rent is based on comparable apartments in the area. However, there are still limits. Depending on the region, 15% or 20% limits may apply for rent increases.
