Annual Rent Increase for 3/1/26 - 2/28/27 Announced

For rent-controlled units, the annual allowable increase amount effective March 1, 2026 through February 28, 2027 is 1.6%. 

To calculate the dollar amount of the 1.6% annual rent increase, multiply the tenant's base rent by .016. For example, if the tenant's base rent is $2,000.00, the annual increase would be calculated as follows: $2,000.00 x .016 = $32.00. The tenant's new base rent would be $2,032.00 ($2,000.00 + $32.00).

The annual allowable increase amount effective March 1, 2025 through February 28, 2026 is 1.4%.
