- Give written notice on the N1 form at least 90 days before the increase starts.
- Only one increase every 12 months, counted from move-in or the last increase.
- The increase can't be more than the guideline for the year it starts, unless the unit is exempt or the Board approves.
- The new rent starts on a rent due date.
