Forum / General Property Management / Rent Increase Notification

I am a new owner of a recently purchased property that has 9 rentals. All of which are on a month to month lease. In Pennsylvania what is the minimum notification time required to give tenants about a rent increase?

30 days is a standard and I believe required by law. This also gives them the appropriate time to deny and start the move out process.

RE: Rent Increase Notification

When it comes to apartment complexes that go by month to month payment, it is similar to cell phone bills. With a cell phone bill, when you adjust the price, it doesn't take effect until the next billing cycle. So say they pay on the 15th of every month, you will want to notify them on or around the 15th so the next cycle (30+ days) can be altered.
