Currently, most landlords are required to give just 30 days' notice, the state minimum, when terminating a lease or raising rent. If landlords don't follow the rules, tenants could be owed an amount up to three months rent as well as actual damages, reasonable attorney fees and costs, according to city documents.

â¢ If you do not have a lease, your landlord can raise your rent by any amount s/he wants, if you are notified at least 30 days in advance of the next time rent is due. â¢ For example, assume your rent is due on the 1st of each month. If on May 15th you receive notice that your rent will be raised from $420 to $450, that is less than 30 days before June 1st, so on June 1st you would owe $420 and on July 1st you would owe $450.
