1. What is CPI Rent Review?

The CPI (Consumer Price Index) Rent Review is a method for adjusting rental prices based on inflation. It ensures that rental values keep pace with the cost of living changes in the economy.

2. How Does the Calculator Work?

The calculator uses the CPI Rent Review formula:

\[ \text{New Rent} = \text{Old Rent} \times \left(1 + \frac{\text{CPI}}{100}\right) \]

Where:

Old Rent — Current rental amount before adjustment
CPI — Consumer Price Index percentage change

Explanation: The formula applies the CPI percentage increase to the original rent amount to calculate the new adjusted rent.

3. Importance of CPI Rent Adjustments

Details: CPI-based rent adjustments help maintain the real value of rental income for landlords while providing predictable, inflation-linked increases for tenants.

4. Using the Calculator

Tips: Enter the current rent amount and the CPI percentage. Both values must be positive numbers.
