Acording to the Landlord Tenant people, the amount of the increase is completely open (no cap whatsoever) They are usually required to give you three months notice of an increase, and can not increase closer than 6 months apart. However a loophole allows them to increase as much as they want without ANY NOTICE on the first day of an annual lease. Apparently each new annual lease is considered a new contract that has no relationship to the previous lease, and is therefore not bound by the rules that apply "during" the term of the lease.
Bottom line, the landlord can screw you over with out notice once a year if you are on a one yearly lease.
