Official Law Citation: KRS 65.875 / Contract Law
Commercial rent increases in Kentucky are governed entirely by the lease agreement. There is no rent control, no statutory cap, and no mandated notice period for commercial properties.
No Rent Control
Kentucky has no rent control at any level - state, county, or municipal - for commercial properties.
Common Escalation Structures
Fixed Annual Increases
A set dollar amount or percentage increase each year. Provides predictability for both parties.
CPI-Based Adjustments
Rent adjusts based on changes in the Consumer Price Index, typically with floor and ceiling provisions (e.g., minimum 2%, maximum 5%).
Fair Market Value (FMV) Resets
At option renewal periods, rent resets to current market rates. An appraiser or arbitration panel may be used if the parties disagree.
NNN Expense Pass-Throughs
In NNN leases, the tenant's total cost increases as property taxes, insurance, and CAM charges rise - even if base rent stays flat.
Holdover Rent
Kentucky commercial leases typically specify a holdover rate of 150-200% of the final month's rent for tenants who remain after lease expiration.
