This is dependant on the rental agreement. IF the rental agreement charges by the person then they may be able to charge extra for a child. Since the child is a minor, then most likely the lease is per time period and property size and NOT the addition of a child. Most rental agreements indicate that you cannot sublease or subrent to a second party outside the original parties involved in the lease BUT since the baby is NOT a new renter then this is bad attempt to extort money from the renter.
yes your landlord can.
More than likely yes. It all depend on the contract / renter agreement you signed. If the contract reads that the landlord can raise the rent at any given time then yes.If the contract reads the landlord can raise rent at the end of a lease term (for example 6 months.) then also yes.Unless the agreement states the landlord cannot raise rent 1. during a lease period, or 2. at all then he can raise it regardless of your income situation.You may try and talk to your landlord and explain the situation and they might have some compassion for your situation.
Unless you are in a controlled rent area they can raise the rent. Most of the rental contracts state that, so look in the fine print of your lease.
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.
I know Massachusetts doesn't have a limit. I don't think any state does.
If your friends landlord lowered the rent for him/her and then after moving in with him/her, he/she decides to move out, then the landlord will most likely raise the rent again.
yes your landlord can.
Under Florida law, a landlord is permitted to raise your rent as long as its stated in your lease. This law does not specify how much the landlord can raise the rent, only that he is permitted to if your lease says he can.
Your landlord can do what he wants when your lease runs out.
Unless your State or locality is rent-controlled, your landlord basically doesn't have to have any specific reason in order to raise the rent. This is a business just like any other.
Our landlord is going to raise the rent again. I complained to the landlord about the leaky pipes.
More than likely yes. It all depend on the contract / renter agreement you signed.

How much and how often can a landlord raise the rent?
A landlord can raise his price up too whatever. It's all depending on the size of the home?
Yes, subject to any local rent control laws.
The landlord may not raise the rent during the lease but after it expires, that's different. Many areas have rent control so check for that first. If there is, then the increase should be within that limit or else you can appeal to the Rent Control Board. If there is no rent control, then the landlord may be free to raise it as much as he wants. If he's asking more than it's worth, move.
Firstly, some areas have rent control. Contact your local Department of Housing to find out. Even without rent control, there are probably laws in your area about how a landlord can raise the rent. It probably must be in writing. It probably must be with 30 days' notice (or more). The fact it is oral doesn't mean he can raise the rent orally.
