You would not believe this....
I have a 4 b/r home with a rumpus room/teenage retreat in Perth. I have contacted the "agent" to have the rent increased. Currently we have the house rented out for $215.00 per week.
My "agent" now tells us that she is not sure that we would be able to get anymore than $10.00 extra per week for it!
$225.00 for a house that is in good condition, and all repairs such as guttering etc done when requested.
Okay granted the tenant we have is a single female (with a lot of room) she is good, she pays the rent, keeps the house & yard clean etc.
I live interstate from the IP & yes this is my first IP. I just think this is downright dodgy, I have looked on Re.com and have not found anything around the amount that I am currently getting in the area. The rent has been raised once in 2 years by $5 per week.
I have emailed the agent and told them I don't agree and they have yet to get back to me.
What is the most the rental can be increased by assuming the tenant chooses to stay on and pay the increase?
