Change of garage rental agreement without my consent

Questioner

I received a letter that there is a new landlord for my garage box. This landlord wants to convert the current lease from 1993 into a new lease, in which all conditions have been changed unilaterally. In the old lease, a unilateral termination of 1 month is possible by the landlord and no agreements have been made about possible price increases. In the new lease, it states that the rent has been increased by 30% and that an annual increase of the rent is possible. Is this legally valid?

Lawyer

Dear, A contract may be changed, but only in consultation with the tenant. All matters in the 'old' contract must be taken over by the new landlord. In your case, we are legally dealing with a long-term agreement for a longer period. It also concerns what is described in your general (rental) provisions about possible changes. If desired, I am prepared to look into this for you. You may then contact me 'directly'.
