Submit Proposed Rent Increases
Please submit your renewal notices to the following email address: S8renewalrequests@cityofmadison.com
The Owner must not change the rent during the initial lease term. Subsequent requests for rent adjustments must be consistent with the lease between the Owner and the family. Rent increases will not be approved unless any failed items identified by the most recent HQS inspection have been corrected.
After the initial occupancy period, the owner may request a rent adjustment in accordance with the Owner's lease. For rent increase requests after initial lease-up, the CDA may request Owners to provide information about the rents charged for other units on the premises, if the premises includes more than 4 units. In evaluating the proposed rents in comparison to other units on the premises the CDA will consider unit size and length of tenancy in other units.
The Owner must submit the proposed rent adjustment request a minimum of 60 days in advance of the start date of the new proposed lease.
