as someone who works in property law/management, i don’t understand the idea behind increasing rent without any infrastructural changes/development. like what’s the logic? i don’t want to ask my boss cos i don’t want to feel stupid but i really don’t understand the concept.

secretary. talkative. igbo girl. thought daughter.

most increments are because there is rent review clause in the tenancy agreement. And most landlords base the increment on economic factors or the changing market value of the property and not necessarily because there has been any infrastructural improvement…..(1/2)

I’m a Web3 lover who is focused,disciplined and always locked in. because magic happens when you’re consistent.

…..(2/2) Though it’s within the landlords right to increase rent as stipulated in the tenancy/ lease agreement. the most important thing is that the increment must not be absurd as the law frowns against arbitrary increment and if per adventure that happens,The tenant can go to court to seek for declaration against such increment. 
 (I hope this helps).

Real cuz most tenants don’t know they have the right to fight against these landlords. It is well..

okay 
hopefully someone comes out to sue cos it’s just insane
