Paste the notice and your lease dates. In a few seconds you get whether the notice follows Florida's rules, what your options are, and a negotiation letter that gives the landlord a reason to say yes. No account. Nothing stored.
Free — takes 30 seconds
Paste or type the increase notice. Say whether you're on a yearly lease or month-to-month, when the lease ends, how long you've lived there, and the current and new rent.
Why this exists
Turnover costs a landlord a month of vacancy, cleaning, and a listing. A four-year tenant who always pays is worth keeping at a smaller increase — but only if someone asks, in writing, with a number. This checks the notice and writes the ask.
How it works
Plus your lease type and dates. Nothing is saved.
Whether the notice is valid, the real effective date, what to offer — in English or Spanish.
The negotiation letter, the short-notice response and the 30-day plan, in the full version.
Plans
The free check tells you whether the notice is valid and what to offer. The full version writes the letter, the text version, the short-notice response and the plan if they say no.
The letter to the landlord with a counter-offer, a short text version, the response if the notice was too short, and the plan if they say no. English or Spanish. Printable.
For a tenant union, a union local's member services, a church or a legal-aid desk that hears 'my rent went up $300' every week.
All prices in USD, handled by Stripe. The free check never goes behind a paywall.
Common questions
Florida has no rent control, and Fla. Stat. 125.0103 bars cities or counties from capping rent increases except by an emergency referendum. If your landlord gave you a valid notice, the increase is legal even if it feels steep. This tool is not legal advice — confirm anything surprising with FloridaLawHelp.org.
Paste the notice and your lease dates, and the tool checks the notice period against Fla. Stat. 83.57, which sets what a landlord must give to end or change a month-to-month tenancy in Florida. If the notice looks short, that means the increase can only take effect after a proper notice period — it doesn't automatically mean the increase itself is illegal. Confirm the details with legal aid before relying on this.
The first look — checking your notice and seeing your options — is free, and nothing you paste is stored; there's no account. If you want the negotiation letter written out, that's $9 for one notice; tenant organizations, unions, and churches can get ongoing access for $49 a month.
No — if you have a Housing Choice Voucher, rent changes have to go through your housing authority, not just you and the landlord, per HUD's rules. This tool doesn't cover that process; see HUD's Housing Choice Voucher page for what applies to your unit.
No — this tool never tells you to withhold rent or ignore a valid notice; your real options are to negotiate, accept the increase, or plan to move by the effective date. It gives you a plain-language check on the notice and a negotiation letter with reasons landlords actually respond to, but it can be wrong and it's not legal advice.

Florida no tiene control de alquileres, y la Fla. Stat. 125.0103 prohíbe que las ciudades o los condados limiten los aumentos, salvo por referéndum de emergencia. Si su arrendador le dio un aviso válido, el aumento es legal aunque le parezca alto. Esta herramienta no es asesoría legal; confirme cualquier duda en FloridaLawHelp.org.
Pegue el aviso y las fechas de su contrato, y la herramienta revisa el plazo de aviso conforme a la Fla. Stat. 83.57, que establece lo que un arrendador debe dar para terminar o cambiar un arrendamiento mes a mes en Florida. Si el aviso es corto, eso significa que el aumento solo puede tomar efecto después de un aviso adecuado, no que el aumento en sí sea ilegal. Confirme los detalles con ayuda legal antes de actuar.
La primera revisión —ver si el aviso cumple la ley y cuáles son sus opciones— es gratis, y no se guarda nada de lo que usted pega; no se necesita cuenta. Si quiere que le redacten la carta de negociación, cuesta $9 por aviso; las organizaciones de inquilinos, sindicatos e iglesias pueden tener acceso continuo por $49 al mes.
No — si usted tiene un Housing Choice Voucher, los cambios de alquiler deben pasar por su autoridad de vivienda, no solo entre usted y el arrendador, según las reglas de HUD. Esta herramienta no cubre ese proceso; consulte la página de HUD sobre Housing Choice Vouchers para saber qué le corresponde a su unidad.
No — esta herramienta nunca le dice que deje de pagar el alquiler o que ignore un aviso válido; sus opciones reales son negociar, aceptar el aumento o planear mudarse antes de la fecha de efecto. Le da una revisión en lenguaje sencillo del aviso y una carta de negociación con razones a las que los arrendadores realmente responden, pero puede equivocarse y no es asesoría legal.
