| I heard this second hand so don't quote me on it, but are rent for older properties capped (ie the landlord can't raise above a certain level)?
If that's the case than the landlord has limits on the rent he wants to charge... | |

Yes and no, it depends on the Kanton and contract under what circumstances rent can be raised or droped. In the Kanton Zürich you can not kick out tenants telling it is because renovateing the house, just put a new layer of paint on and double the rent for the new tenants. But it is defacto made today, if the new tenant contacts the former tenants asking about the prior conditions of the contract, it will be a backfire for the owner.
