This is a shitty but common practice property management companies do when they want to get someone out of a property so they can turn and renovate a unit usually and charge more or just to get a new tenant and charge more.

The unit was already renovated right before we moved in the year before.

There could be other reasons, but increasing rent at absurd rates is a legal loophole for landlords to get tenants to leave. Not saying this is your case.
