Most leases will have a provision on it that the landlord can make some changes on the lease with a notice of at least 30-days before the next rent is due. But these changes cannot be radical.

∙ 14y agoA landlord cannot make changes to the lease after it has been signed without you agreeing in writing to the changes. You are under no obligation to agree to any changes. Any changes made without your written permission are not valid.

∙ 12y agoA lease is both your responsibility and your security. All said and done it's a business contract your write with your landlord. You can't "change contracts" you can only break, release, or dissolve them and write new ones.
Unless there was in writing, on the lease you signed, that stated a condition that there would be a monthly rate increaseyour monthly payments can not change until the end of your contract. If you didn't sign a contract to allow for them to do so than your landlord is breaking the lease, and the law.
- Prepare for a civil case if there is trouble but reguardless you'd be entitled for a civil suit after all is said and done.
- For them to hike the rent, breaking the contract, there by forcing you to have to move would be enough for a judge to hear.

What happen en's when the landlord changes your lease without your consent?
It depends on what you mean by a lease: if a written lease is signed by both parties for a specific term, then the terms cannot be changed without mutual consent. Even if an oral lease any changes would have to be with your consent. If you do not consent to any change of the terms of the lease you can refuse to sign it and move out.
Does a lease release or a amendment have to be signed to lease to someone else?
It depends on the terms of the lease that is in effect now. If you have a lease that does not allow for a sub-lease (or whatever you are trying to do), then yes, you will have to get the agreement of the landlord before sub-leasing.
Did not sign final lease papers can you break a lease without a final signature?
In most states if you accept an apartment, move in it, and pay the rent, it is an agreement to the acceptance of the terms and conditions on the lease, whether signed or not. If the landlord gives you the keys and accepts the rent, it is an agreement on his part of the terms and conditions, whether signed or not.
Can a landlord give a tenant 14 days to move when they have a signed lease?
Normally the landlord must give at least a 30-day notice before the expiration of the lease that he will not renew it, so the tenant must leave. There is one exception: if the tenant is in violation of the terms of the lease, the landlord may terminate the lease and give such short notice for the tenant to leave.
If you signed a lease and did not pay a security deposit is it valid?
Signing the lease and paying the security deposit are two separate issues. Furthermore, if you don't pay the security deposit then you could be in violation of the lease terms and be evicted if the landlord chooses. Normally you pay the security deposit before you and your landlord sign the lease, or work out a payment plan that you and your landlord agree to. If your landlord agreed to allow you to skip the security deposit then that part of the lease is waived and the rest of the lease stands.
