My last land lord raised rent by 2.5x after the first year. When we moved out he kept the full security deposit because "the inside of the oven was dirty"

Your mileage may vary

4 beautiful words that worked wonders with my shitty landlord who tried to keep my deposit "normal wear and tear".

As soon as I stated that, the lady changed her tune completely.

Your landlord is allowed to raise it by that much? I'm Dutch and we have limits on how much rent can increase, which was a maximum of 4.1% in 2023.
