How often should I review a tenants rent

[Longterminvestor]

I am looking to acquire a buy to let property in the short to medium-term and wondered how often I should review a tenants rent? Should this be written into the rental arrangement with each tenant?

Maybe you should include an annual rent review clause in your tenant agreement? This would then give you scope to increase the rent per tenant or leave it unchanged.

If you have a clause allowing you to review the rent each year then this gives you the option of increasing the payment. This does not mean you have to increase the rent but at least the option is there.
