My Landlord wants to raise my security to my current rent which is 800.00.

My security was 580 when I moved in 12 YEARS AGO. Can he do this? I am month to month.

  1. If you do not have a written lease that provides for some other terms of security deposit, then yes, the landlord can raise the amount of security deposit, and can also raise the amount of rent in the next month. Month-to-month tenancy only covers terms of rental for one month, not for any following month. Were you month-to-month for 12 years?
