My landlord wanted to put the rent up 35% despite cap

She says her landlord’s justification for the increase is that the new price is simply the market rate for the flat - and they appear to be correct.

Economist and co-director of think tank Future Economy Scotland, Laurie Macfarlane, described the rent cap as a “sticking plaster” amid a housing crisis in Scotland that private renters are at the very sharp end of.

看来仅仅rent cap还不够，需要更猛烈的药才行。

最好和房客签fixed term contract, 在term 中间不能随便加价，但是过了这个定好的几个月或者一年的期限续签合同是可以改价格，事先都把这些说明白了。 等到续合同/加租金的时候也没什么分歧。
