Welcome to the Montgomery County DCHA’s Rental Housing Portal!

The Rental Housing Portal allows landlords, tenants, and the public to access housing rental information and rent stabilization regulations and requirements. Landlords must register all rents and fees associated with new leases and lease renewals at the time of signing. This requirement applies to both regulated and exempt units. It is highly recommended that landlords register rents for all units (active leases, new leases, and lease renewals) now to save time during future rent registration updates.
If you need assistance, please see the Rental Portal User Guide (PDF) for instructions on registering a new lease or a renewal.

Please note the following increases. The CPI-U and Maximum Allowable Rent Increase are valid from July 1, 2024, until June 30, 2025.

Voluntary Rent Guideline (VRG): 2.6%
Consumer Price Index- Urban (CPI-U): 3.3%
Maximum Allowable Rent Increase: 6%

ATTENTION!
November 21, 2024 Announcement: The Rental Housing Portal will soon be updated with new features to improve the process of entering month-to-month leases. Please check back for an update once these features have been released. You can still register all other units under leases. Montgomery County's Rent Stabilization law took effect on July 23, 2024. Landlords must ensure that all regulated and voluntary fees comply with these regulations by October 21, 2024.
