How often can a landlord raise my rent now that the law has changed?
Rent increases are limited to once per year.

Will landlords be limited in how much they can raise the rent now that the law is changing?
No. The legislation does not include any rental caps.

When do the new rules for increasing rent take effect?
As of April 24, 2007, landlords can only raise rent once a year.

If a landlord gave a rent increase notice to take effect after April 24, is the notice valid?
The rent will increase as per the notice if the tenant continues to rent the premises and as long as there has not been an increase within the previous 365 days or the start of the tenancy, whichever is later. If the rent was increased within the past year, rent cannot be increased again until a year after that increase became effective. At least three months’ written notice must be given to a tenant to increase the rent for a periodic tenancy.

What happens if a landlord tries to raise the rent before a year has passed since the last increase?
Effective April 24, 2007, rents cannot be increased unless 365 days pass since the last rent increase or the start of the tenancy, whichever is later. The Residential Tenancies Act allows tenants to apply to court for remedies for damages, rent abatement, compensation or termination of the tenancy.

The landlord could face fines of up to $10,000 per tenant. Call Service Alberta's Contact Centre toll free at 1 (877) 427 4088 or a local Landlord and Tenant Advisory Board if you are unsure whether or not a rent increase is allowed.

How much notice must my landlord provide before they increase the rent on my mobile home site?
At least 180 days (six months’) notice for periodic (month-to-month) tenancies.

When can rent be increased for fixed-term tenants (such as those with a lease agreement for a specific number of months or years)?
The landlord and tenant agree to the amount of rent when they negotiate the terms of the fixed term tenancy agreement. Rent cannot be increased unless 365 days pass since a tenant moved in or since the last rent increase, whichever is later. If the 365th day is during the current fixed term tenancy agreement, rent cannot be increased until that tenancy agreement ends.

How much notice is required before landlords convert a rental unit to a condominium?
Periodic tenants have to be given a full year’s notice to end the tenancy and rent cannot be increased during the year.

How much notice is required before landlords can end a periodic tenancy to undertake major renovations (that require the premises to be vacant)?

Service Alberta has tipsheets for landlords and tenants and mobile home sites in Alberta.
