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.
Is it legal for your landlord to raise your rent almost 400 dollars if he found out a 4th person was living in your house before he was told?
Well, it's probably in your lease agreement that you have to notify your landlord of an additional tenant. That's pretty standard. Whether he's raising the rent on all the apartments or just on yours because of the extra tenant is the question. As a landlord, he can raise rent if he wishes. He could probably also evict you or the extra tenant too, so it's delicate ground. Read your lease agreement. If you don't find a clause stating that the landlord can raise the rent due to an extra tenant, you might have a case. A call to your local clerk of the court can head you in the right direction for investigating the landlord/tenant laws in your state.

Tenants right if lease has expired and landlord wants to raise the rent?
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.
