FAQ - I�ve gotten a rent increase notice asking for 3%. Is this excessive?
Depending on several factors, the answer will vary. However, after discussions with Metropolitan Structures Inc. (MSInc), NITA estimates that MSInc�s proposed increase of 3% for 2004 is reasonable and justified, for MSInc tenants living in gas-heated dwellings (the majority of MSInc�s units are gas-heated).
We recommend you read the complete 2004 flyer on lease renewals for more information.
This being said, there are exceptions. Tenants are especially urged to attend our workshops or contact us if they are in one of the following categories:
- They have more than one year�s fixing of rent pending (e.g. 2002 and/or 2003);
- They live in an electrically-heated or unheated dwelling;
- They live in a dwelling that underwent major repairs or renovations in the past years.
