What you need to know
What it is
A written notice informing Michigan tenants of a rent change with the timing and terms required for enforceability.
When to use it
Before raising rent on a renewal or month-to-month tenancy — never increase mid-term on a fixed lease without agreement.
Why it matters
Improper notice can delay your increase by months or invite disputes. Michigan timing depends on tenancy type.
Common mistakes
- Giving too short notice for month-to-month tenancies
- Raising rent during a fixed term without addendum
- Not delivering notice in writing
State-specific note
Michigan generally requires adequate notice for month-to-month tenancies; verify Detroit and other local rules if applicable.
