Add-on: Automated rent increases
This add-on automatically creates scheduled rent increases. For details on manually creating or cancelling any jobs, refer to this help document: Scheduling and cancelling a rent change.
This Add-on eliminates manual rent changes and allows operators to set percentage rent increases and offer advance notice. It is ideal for maintaining consistent price increases.
Once a rent increase has been scheduled for a unit rental through the Add-on, it will be visible on the unit rental as it would be if you manually scheduled a rent change.
You can also view upcoming rent changes in the Site's job list, just filter by "Rent change" type.
