2018 Rent Increase Guideline Sample rent increase calculation: The monthly rent of an apartment is $1,000 beginning June 1,

2017. With proper written 90 days' notice to the tenant, the landlord could increase the rent 12 months later on June 1, 2018.

This is the calculation for the rent increase:

The guideline for 2018 is 1.8%
A rent increase of 1.8% on $1,000 = $18
Therefore, the new rent on June 1, 2018 could be as much as $1,018
Above guideline increases: Landlords can apply to the LTB for an increase above the guideline for any of the following reasons:

Their municipal taxes have increased by more than the guideline plus 50 per cent. (For example, if the guideline is 1.8%, the taxes must have increased by more than 2.7 %).
They incurred operating costs related to security services.
They incurred eligible capital expenditures.
