Forum / General Property Management / rent increase

I'm in the middle of a 1 year lease. I'd like to increase rent due to additional tenant. How much can I increase rent in California on a 1 year lease?

RE: rent increase

Much of this depends on the lease you have. IF your lease specifies the number of occupants that are permitted and your tenant wants to change that, than you will be able to negotiate with the tenant for the amount per month to add an additional tenant. I personally, would make sure and run a credit check on the new tenant and then come up with a reasonable and agreeable increase.
