Send a rent increase notice

When you raise a tenant's rent, Wealtharu sends the tenant a rent-increase notice (a templated letter and email). You review everything before it goes out.

The short version

• Open the lease, go to the Money area, and use the rent increase tool.
• Enter the new rent and the effective date, then Check it against the province guideline and notice period.
• Choose Apply now or Schedule for the effective date.
• A review screen opens so you can check and edit the notice before it is sent.

Step by step

1. Open the lease and find the rent increase section.
2. Enter the new rent and the effective date. The effective date must be far enough out to meet your province's notice period.
3. Click Check. Wealtharu shows whether the increase is within the province rent-increase guideline and whether the notice period is met.
4. Click Apply now & notify (changes the rent now) or Schedule for effective date (serves the notice now and applies the new rent automatically on the date).
5. On the Review the notice screen: - To / From: who the notice goes to and who it is from. - Email subject and body: edit the wording if you want. - Warnings: anything you need to finish by hand.
6. Click Send now (or Schedule and serve). The tenant gets the rent-increase notice by email.

What the tenant receives

• A branded Wealtharu email with your subject and message setting out the new rent and effective date.

Good to know

• Guideline is a PREVIEW: the province rent-increase guideline shows with a PREVIEW mark. It is tooling, not legal advice. Always confirm your province's rules before serving.
• Review before serving: check the notice on screen before it goes out.
• Above the guideline: Wealtharu still lets you proceed if you have grounds, but confirm the rules and any approval that applies yourself.
