Just to put things in prospective my 1 bedroom with parking which is in the same building was rented out last Oct for $1875. Once her lease expires the rent will be hovering around $2200. The increase in the rent isn't just a lack of supply but it's also linked to Airbnb which is raising rental rates at a pretty alarming rate.
I though there some policy/law in place to limit how much you can increase the rent. Also you can't say kick the person you renting out and then increase rent...... I think is 3% max each year?
