Key Points

Why it matters: 理清维州关于“每12个月只能涨租一次”的强制限令,避免房东因续签半年期短约或因租客去留引发的租金变动而误触法律红线,引发 VCAT 纠纷。

群友针对维州租约到期后的加租规则展开了深入讨论。核心法规明确指出,无论租约是以半年(6个月)还是其他定期形式签署,在同一住宅内,针对同一租客在12个月内严禁加租超过一次。即使租客曾提出退租后又取消、双方重新签署了新合同,只要未满周年,调高租金的行为仍可能被认定为违规加租。此外,即便是租约到期转为逐月续租(Month-by-Month)状态,房东也必须遵循提前90天发出法定涨租通知的流程,且同样受12个月周期限制。
