Ohio· Answer
How much advance notice does Ohio require to raise rent?
Short answer
Ohio has no statewide advance notice specific to rent increases. ORC 5321.17 sets 30 days as the month-to-month termination default, treated as the default for rent changes. No state rent cap.

Honest limits
This is an informational answer based on ORC 5321.17 (30-day month-to-month termination default) as of early 2026. It is not legal advice. Housing law changes year to year and local ordinances (especially in rent-controlled or rent-stabilized cities) can override or add to state law. For contested cases, consult a Ohio-licensed attorney.
