In Newfoundland, rent can only be increased once every year and not in the first year. What is the rule in Alberta?

In Alberta, rent can be increased at different intervals depending upon the kind of periodic tenancy that exists.

  • For a weekly tenancy, rent can be increased after 26 weeks form the last increase.
  • For a monthly tenancy, rent can be increased after six months from the last increase.

Notice of an increase must be given.
