Is the Rent Increase Calculator free?
Yes. It is completely free, with no sign-up, no watermark, and no usage limits.
Does it use a specific currency?
No. Amounts are currency-neutral and use the same unit across all inputs, so it works in any country.
How do I calculate a rent increase?
New rent = current rent × (1 + increase ÷ 100). A 5% increase on $1,800 is $1,890, or $1,080 more a year.
Is there a limit on rent increases?
It depends on where you live. Some US states and cities cap increases (California, Oregon and rent-stabilized units in New York, for example), and most places require written notice. Check local rules.
