Its so easy to get around the 10% legal hike limit by evicting the tenant and drawing out a "new" lease with another sucker, er tenant LOL
In Montreal the rates were fixed period....new or old...it didn't matter....and the agreement spells out who is responsible for what (ex light bulb burns, the tenant changes them....water heater breaks, the landlord changes them....etc...).
And just to adress one of Jaunties questions (so sorry I missed it ealier), you can't do major structural changes to the property without the municipality permit (wether landlord OR tenant)....no contractor will perform the work without the municipal permit...so when you go to get this permit the landlord is automatically informed by the municipal authorities and has to concent or no structural changes....so no, you cannot knock down walls....but you can for example paint the interior walls any color you want as long as you return them to white when you leave (this is usually stipulated in the rental agreement)....again exterior colors are municipally regulated...don't you just LOVE he order in Canada....can you now start to appreciate how much i'm suffering in the chaos of the middle east LMAO!!!
Stay safe all.
Perfection does not exist. The question therefore, is: what level of imperfection are we willing to settle for?
