How does the rent in Paris ?
From July 2019, the owner must set the rent according to a schedule of rents of reference for any new lease entered into or renewed. The rent is fixed by the Observatory of rents in the greater paris area (OLAP) to the 80 districts of the capital. The organization takes into account different criteria (year of construction of the building, type of dwelling, number of rooms, etc). It determines three rents : the reference rent minus (30% below the reference rent), the reference rent and the rent reference plus (20% higher than the reference rent).
For its part, the lessor must ensure that it does not exceed the reference rent plus. The rent must not be lower than the reference rent minus . “ to the amount of The rent and the rent reference plus need to be mentioned in the rental contract”, recalls the CLCV on his site.
You are a tenant and your lease is over ? At any time, it is possible to engage in a negotiation to review the amount of the rent downward. If your landlord refuses, you can terminate your lease contract respecting the period of notice of one month. The lessor must comply with the rent for the next tenant. For reminder, the device of rent regulation does not apply to the tacit renewal of the lease.

What happens when the rent in Paris is not respected ?
You are about to enter into a lease, but you realize that the owner-lessor does not comply with the ceilings set by prefectural order ? In a first step, have you checked that it does not apply a supplement of rent (read below) ? This blurred notion allows us to raise the price of the rent if the housing pr&comthee;to feel certain characteristics. As a reminder, this add-in needs to be justified.
If this is not the case, here’s how to act according to your situation :
The caps are not mentioned in the lease : you have a month to send a formal notice to the owner, who has a period of one month to respond to you. In the absence of a response, it is recommended to go before the judge of the disputes of which your housing depends on it. Your rent is higher than the reference rent plus : turn to the commission départementale de conciliation or before the judge to get a reduction. A supplement of rent is expected : you have a period of three months following the signing of your lease to refer to the commission départementale de conciliation. The landlord will then have to justify the add-in. What the law says Elan on rent ?
The act Elan not only provides the experimental installation of the frame of the rents for five years for the municipalities that want it. E girl also sets the penalties :
Up to 5 000 euros of fine for a natural person Up to 15 000 euros of fine for a legal person .
as a reminder, these sanctions are not automatic. They are applied after a passage before a conciliation commission . The landlord must include the rent reference in the rental agreement.
That is what is meant by the complement of rent ?
You will notice that your rent exceeds the reference rent plus ? There is an exception that allows the landlord to raise the rent : the additional rent. It can be applied when the housing has characteristics related to the comfort or the location for example . The law is still very fuzzy on what one means by this notion. It is assumed that the legislative text is thus alluded to the possible presence of a balcony, a great view on a monument of Paris, etc
as a reminder, the additional rent can be applied only to the requirement that the base rent (charges excluded) to be at the same level as the reference rent plus . The amount of the rent includes the base rent and this famous complement, which must be justified in the rental contract. You are a tenant and you feel that this add-in is not justified ? It is possible to dispute via the commission for conciliation, within a period of three months after the signing of the lease.
