The Notice of Rent Increase Commercial Lease is a crucial document in Nigerian commercial property management that serves as an official communication between landlords and business tenants. This document is typically used when property owners or managers need to adjust rental rates in accordance with market conditions, inflation, or lease terms. It must comply with Nigerian federal and state-specific tenancy laws, including the Recovery of Premises Act and relevant state property laws. The notice should be issued within the timeframe specified in the original lease agreement or as required by local regulations, typically ranging from one to six months before the intended increase. The document includes specific details about the current rent, proposed new amount, effective date, and calculation basis, ensuring transparency and legal compliance while maintaining professional relationships with commercial tenants.
