I had a question regarding rent increases written in an appendix of a lease I signed. The lease started on October 2025 and will end in July 2027, and the first increase is written to start on August 2026. My reading of the 1906 article is that an increase cannot happen within the first 12 months, and so the increase shouldn't apply until October 2026. Would I be in the right to not pay the rent including the increase or am I bound to the increase that was written in the appendix? Thanks in advance for the responses!
