Rent increase & renewal notice

Notice

The new rent, the date it starts, and the notice period you state — printed as a dated letter.

The notice period is yours, and the notice says so

CompliMaint does not know how much notice a rent change needs at your property, and it will not guess. The period differs by state, frequently by city, and it changes — so the box opens empty, what you type prints on the letter word for word, and a line under it says the sender supplied it. That is the difference between a document you can stand behind and a number somebody's software produced.

No rent cap, no rent control, no arithmetic

The tool prints the figures you typed. It applies no cap, checks no rent stabilization rule, works out no percentage increase and takes no view on whether the change is permitted. Several cities limit both the size and the frequency of an increase; confirming that is your job, and doing it before you send is the point of the warning above the finished notice.

Around a renewal: Lease expiry register · Rent roll · Rent receipt

A dated notice built from your own words, figures and dates. CompliMaint states no required notice period, calculates no deadline, applies no rent cap or rent control rule, and takes no view on whether a change is permitted. This is not legal advice. Everything runs on your device.

Questions people ask

How much notice do I have to give for a rent increase?
CompliMaint does not answer that, on purpose. It is set by your lease and by the law where the property is, it differs by state and often by city, and it changes. The tool leaves the period box empty and prints what you enter — confirm what applies before you send anything.
Does it check rent control or a rent cap?
No. It applies no cap and checks no rent stabilization rule. Several cities limit how much and how often rent may rise; the tool has not looked, and says so on the finished notice.
Can I use it for a renewal that does not change the rent?
Yes. Put the same figure in both boxes, or leave the current rent blank, and use the term and other-terms sections to set out what you are offering.
Is the finished notice a legal form?
No. It is a template built from what you typed. Some states prescribe the wording or the delivery method for a rent change notice; CompliMaint has checked neither. Have a local attorney read it once, and the version you use afterwards is free.
