Florida Notice of Rent Increase
Give written notice before raising rent on a Florida tenancy. Florida does not set a separate statewide clock just for rent increases. Follow the lease. For a month-to-month tenancy, 15 days’ written notice before the end of the period is the usual termination clock (Fla. Stat. § 83.57); many landlords use at least that much notice for an increase.

- This notice is not an eviction and not a new lease.
- City rent-control or just-cause rules may still limit the increase.
