This calculator estimates an annual guideline increase only. It does not determine whether a tenancy is eligible for an increase or whether the unit is exempt from the guideline.

12 months

In most cases, at least 12 months must have passed since the tenancy began or the tenant's last lawful rent increase.

90 days

The landlord must generally give at least 90 days' written notice before the increase takes effect.

2018

Certain units first occupied for residential purposes after November 15, 2018 may be exempt from the annual guideline.
