Frequently asked questions

By how much can rent be increased?

For residential and covered business premises, the increase for the renewed lease year cannot exceed the twelve-month average change in the consumer price index (CPI) for the previous lease year. For leases that have lasted five years, the rent may be redetermined by the judge.

Is mediation mandatory before a lease action?

Yes. Since 1 September 2023, mediation is mandatory before filing a lawsuit in disputes arising from a lease. Certain enforcement routes, such as eviction through enforcement proceedings without a judgment, are excluded.
