Setting the rent is a fundamental requirement for every tenancy and from time to time a landlord will want to raise the rent to reflect his increasing costs.
Different rules apply for setting and increasing the rent depending on the type of tenancy.
A tenant will also face penalties for non-payment of rent. These vary depending on the type of tenancy but are governed by the same legislation.
