Is there a rent cap in Florida?
No. Florida has no statewide rent cap. The lease governs rent increases during any fixed term. After the fixed term or on month-to-month tenancies, the landlord may raise rent with the required advance notice. Florida has no statewide advance notice for rent increases. Fla. Stat. 83.57 (post-HB 1417, effective July 1, 2023) requires 30 days notice to terminate a month-to-month tenancy, which landlords use as the default for rent changes. No state rent cap.

This is an informational answer based on Fla. Stat. 83.57 (30-day month-to-month termination default, post-HB 1417) 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 Florida-licensed attorney.
