RE: RENT INCREASE
Negotiation is always an option for landlord and tenant. But BEWARE, a tenant that is already behind on rent and cannot afford the current rent will probably not be able to afford a higher rent. You would probably be better off evicting the current tenants and then re-renting at a higher rent. If you mean you want to set up monthly payments and build it in to the rental amount, therefore increasing the monthly rent....you can do that by just drafting a letter or a new lease and having the tenant sign it.
