After food and energy, it is the turn of rents to experience a price spike. The index used to determine their progress jumped 2.5%, to which is added an increase in tenant charges.
You will soon have to spend more to pay your rent. The benchmark rent index jumped 2.48% in the last quarter, unheard of since 2008. The rise is feared by Fanny Dulin, an employee who earns 1,400 euros net per month and who lives in a three-room apartment. in Seine-et-Marne. His charges have already increased and his lease does contain a rent review clause. If its owner applies the increase, this will represent approximately 11 euros more on its rent. “It will be 10 euros more on the overdraft“, she laments.
This increase is due to the increase in the other benchmark rental indices, namely inflation, increases in construction and maintenance work. New tenants could also pay more, because with the rise in teleworking, requests for furnished accommodation have become more democratic.
