Best Answer

In most states your landlord cannot raise the rent without at least 30 days of notice in writing. If a landlord essentially tells you by voice that he is raising the rent, or gives you too short notice, you can ignore the increase. If he files eviction proceedings you can bring up this matter as a defense in court.

How soon after moving in to a new apartment can the landlord raise your rent?

Immediately, if he wants. However, he has to give a full rental period notice. So, if the rent is due on the first of each month, and he wants to raise the rent for January, he has to give written notice to that effect by November 30. There is no limit on how much he can raise it.


Is it legal for a landlord to raise your rent on an oral month to month bases if your rent was 500 and he wants to raise it to 950?

Firstly, some areas have rent control. Contact your local Department of Housing to find out. Even without rent control, there are probably laws in your area about how a landlord can raise the rent. It probably must be in writing. It probably must be with 30 days' notice (or more). The fact it is oral doesn't mean he can raise the rent orally.


Can your landlord raise the rent if you decide not to renew?

no Answer #2. During a lease, the landlord cannot increase the rent. You are in a contract. Otherwise, speaking generally, the landlord has freedom to increase the rent. He typically owes you 30 days' notice. If you are not renewing, surely you will be out before any rent increase could take effect.

Does my landlord have to give me a 30 or 60 day notice of rent increase greater than10 percent in Wisconsin?

Wisconsin does not have any laws specifying how much notice a landlord must give you in order to raise your rent. Your original lease should specify how much advance notice will be given. On a month to month lease, the landlord is required to give a minimum of 28 days notice, the same as beginning eviction proceedings. If your current lease is still valid, the landlord cannot legally change the rent until the lease ends.


What percent can a landlord raise rent in ct?

I'm not sure about Connecticut law, but I don't know of a state that has a limit on how much the rent can be raised. The landlord has to give proper notice - which would be one full rental period - so the tenant has time to leave if they don't want to pay the new rent. But, once they've done that, they can raise the rent as much as they want.

What is the right of a tenants when the landlord increases rental payment?

In a month-to-month tenancy at will, the landlord can raise the rent by giving notice that the current tenancy will be terminated at the end of the next month, and that, if the tenants want to stay after that, the rent will be more. Today is May 11. If the rent is due on the first of each month, and if landlord gives notice on or before May 31, then the tenants are obligated to leave at the end of June, or pay the new rent on July 1.
