Hello!
I am about to renew my rental contract next month and I am wondering if there is a legal cap for how much my rent can increase?
Currently I am living in Barcelona, plaza espa?a area in a 2 br apartment. I am happy with the apartment, though, I pay a hefty price already. The landlary wants to raise from 750 to 780…which I think is about 4% My contract is what seems to be a standard legal contract (wite paper with blue decor: Contrato de Arrendamiento de Finca Urbana. I was told that there is a cap in Barcelona (possibly the rest of Spain) of how much a landlord can raise the rent, but I am not sure what to search for in order to find this information.
Please advise if you have any information, as I do not think this increase is fair.
Thank you!
