What’s in it
This bill limits the amount a landlord can increase rent on current tenants under residential landlord and tenant agreements and in manufactured home communities or mobile home parks. The bill provides that if a landlord applies a rent increase to the dwelling unit or mobile home space of a current tenant, the percentage increase shall not be greater than either three times the percentage increase of the consumer price index for all urban consumers in the midwest region over the previous months or the percentage increase of the property value of the premises or the manufactured home community or mobile home park, respectively, as determined by the county assessor for the same period since the last rent increase, whichever is higher.
