Sent from my mobile deviceI received an email from my landlord.

And the landlord came by yesterday 7/20/13 with a legal document "notice of change of terms of tenancy". He says the paperwork he gave me is a legal document. At which I totally understand. But this landlord raise my rent $110.00 within 50 days. Is this legal!

    If you have a lease your rent can only be raised when your lease ends and it's time to renew. If you are on a month to month they can raise the rent as often as they want to as long as you are given a 30 day notice of the increase

    100% legal if you have no lease. 30 days notice is all that is needed.

    ...generally. not as (you) show on this posting... All the States and some local communities have different Laws and By-Laws... contact a qualified Attorney or your State Attorney General to find out for sure.
