It's that time of the year when many tenants have been served a renewal letter for their tenancy contracts.

Are you facing an increase in rent beyond the five per cent rent cap, high maintenance fees, chiller fees, car parking fees or some other absurd fees?

How have you reacted to the increases and what has been the response of the landlords and/or real estate agents?

Or maybe you've had a positive experience and your landlords and agents have respected the rent cap rule when raising the rent?
