Your landlord never touches your Section 8 (now known as Housing Choice Voucher), only the Housing Authority does. They adjust your rent according to your income or the difference between your subsidized amount and any amount exceeding the payment standards. A landlord can raise the rent to as high as he wants it, but if your rent exceeds the maximum payment standards set by your Housing Authority you can look for another place.

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.


What percent can a landlord raise 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.

How soon after moving in to a new apartment can the landlord raise your rent?

Immediately, if he wants. However, he has to give a full rental period notice. So, if the rent is due on the first of each month, and he wants to raise the rent for January, he has to give written notice to that effect by November 30. There is no limit on how much he can raise it.
