Understanding the Rent Escalation Scheduler

How to use the Rent Escalation Scheduler in Re-Leased — generate multiple scheduled rent reviews from a tenancy using first review date, frequency, review type, and increase amount or percentage settings.

Updated over a week ago

The Rent Escalation Scheduler lets you quickly generate multiple rent escalation instances across a tenancy's term — useful for structured rent increase schedules agreed at lease signing.


Where to Find the Rent Escalation Scheduler

  • Within the Tenancy Wizard setup (Residential and Commercial).

  • Directly from the Rent Reviews tab within a Tenancy/Lease.

  • Through the Renew Term workflow.


Key Fields

The Term Summary provides context including term start and end dates, current annual rents, tax/VAT/GST inclusion, and payment frequencies.

When creating a rent escalation, fill in:

  • Description — brief explanation of the escalation.

  • First Review Date — when the first escalation takes effect.

  • Frequency — how often escalations occur (e.g. annually, every 2 years).

  • Review Type — the nature of the review (e.g. fixed increase, Stepped Rent).

  • Delegate To — assign to a team member for oversight.

  • Starting Rent Amount — the base rent before any escalations.

  • Increase by — percentage or fixed amount per escalation.

  • Number of Reviews — how many escalations to schedule, or select "until the end of the term".
