Rent raise limits?

[living life happier]

My landlord is raising my rent more than 7% for the next year. Is there any state or city limit on the amount a landlord can raise the rent? I'm in Davis Square. Thanks for any help you can give!

we had made a verbal agreement

Yeah, verbal agreements with landlords are worth the paper they're written on.
