Learn how to set rent to market level using the RTB Rent Register, provide the three required comparable property examples, what details to include about the previous tenancy (last rent amount, date set, and RTB registration number), and how to submit the notice to both your tenant and the RTB on the same day. Essential viewing for any landlord starting a new tenancy under the new national rent control system.

This tutorial shows landlords exactly how to fill out the Notice of Rent Review Form when increasing rent for either an existing tenancy or one created after 1 March 2026.

The video also covers when rent reviews are permitted, how to attach the required supporting statement with comparable properties, Part D exemptions for substantial refurbishment, and the importance of serving the notice on both tenant and RTB to avoid criminal sanctions for improper rent setting.

Learn how to select the three comparable examples you need to support a rent setting or rent review notice, and how to use the Rent Calculator to work out the maximum permissible rent under the national rent control rules.
