A tenancy agreement can normally only be changed if both you and your landlord agree. If you both agree, the change should be recorded in writing, either by drawing up a new written document setting out the terms of the tenancy or by amending the existing written tenancy agreement.
For month-to-month tenancies, you must provide a 30-day written notice of the change in the terms of the tenancy. If the change involves a rent increase of more than 10%, a 90-day notice is required. However, if the increase is due to income or household size recertification, you only need to provide 30 days notice.
