This is more of a rent control question. Most states are not rent-controlled, but many jurisdictions within those states may be. If that is the case, then the rent cannot be any higher than the amount that is controlled by the jurisdiction. Otherwise, as is the case in most states, the rent can be as high as the landlord wants: it would be up to you, the tenant, to decide whether you want to pay the increased amount. If not, then you must vacate premises.

How much can your landlord raise the rent all at once to a new tenant?

It depends on your lease. If you don't have a lease, the rent can be raised at any time by any amount. If you do have a lease, check the lease. If their are limits raising the rent in the lease, then you can bring that to your landlord's attention. If they raise your rate more than what's in the lease, then you can sue them in order to get them to comply with the lease. If there are no limits identified in the lease, then the rent can be raised at any time by any amount.

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.

What if the landlord raises the rent after you apply for tenancy?

Your rent cannot be raised during the term of your lease. If you're applying for tenancy and the rent is raised, then the unit is being offered at that rate. You can accept it as such, perhaps negotiate with the landlord to lower the rent to which you will sign the lease, or refuse to sign and cancel your tenancy offer.
