If the landlord sends a certified letter stating the rent will go up starting next month is that legally binding and do i have to pay the increase?
It depends on if you have a lease. If you rent month-to-month, then he is complying with the law and you will have to pay the new rent. If you have an annual lease, that lease will specify whether he can raise it, and by now much. If it doesn't specify, he can raise it at the end of the lease date. Your town or state may have rent control laws, however. Call the town housing/building department and ask.
It is against the law for the landlord to ask for first and last months rent to someone who is renting?

What percent can a landlord raise the rent in CT?
I'm not sure about Connecticut law, but I don't know of a state that has a limit on how much the rent can be raised. The landlord has to give proper notice - which would be one full rental period - so the tenant has time to leave if they don't want to pay the new rent. But, once they've done that, they can raise the rent as much as they want.
What is the average annual rent increase in CA?
California has many different laws on this. It depends on the county and city you live in. For example, in Los Angeles county, there are a lot of cities with a 3% per year increase cap. In other cities in the same county there is no limit, but is considered that 10% per year is the absolute limit an owner SHOULD ask. The owner of every aprtment building in Los Angeles county is required by law to post a city and county registration certificate for all tenants to see. On this certificate is an increase limit if there is one. I don't know about other counties. You can call your local city hall and they can point you in the right direction. And if you think you are being unfairly increased, as an owner I can tell you that YOU have more rights than I do. So if you are a good tenant and like where you live really check into this. Please go onto: www.google.com TYPE IN: Landlord & Tenency Act in California, United States You will see all the rules and regulations and if you have problems the right channels to go through and the address' and phone numbers. In British Columbia, Canada the rent can only be increased once a year and has it's limits. If a person was paying $550/month and the Landlord raised it to $1,000 that's unexceptable and if reported they would have to give good reason for this hike in rent. Even if the Landlord raises the rent once a year it's can't be raised in large amounts. Good luck Marcy

Can you break your lease if an apartment complex raises your rent after 8 months into a year lease and you cant afford the new rent?
The lease is a contract. If it says the rent is X for one year, they are not free to increase it during that period. What you can afford has nothing to do with it. What matters is the law. Check if your city has rent control laws that limit the increases.
