Alaska Rent Increase Notice

What Alaska law says

• The guide says at least 30 days notice is required before the increase takes effect.
• The tenant can accept the new rent or move out with written 30-day notice.
• A lease fixes rent during its term unless the lease provides for increases.
• The guide does not describe general rent control, but notes HUD or AHFC may control increases in some assisted housing.

Steps for a landlord

• Put the increase in writing.
• Give it at least 30 days before the effective date.
• Use the state sample notice for month-to-month increases.
• Check lease terms for any scheduled increases.

What to put in the notice

• The tenants' names and the rental address
• The current rent and the new rent
• The date the new rent starts, after the required notice period
• The date of the notice and how it was delivered
• Your name and signature

Things to watch

• The guide cites no statute for the 30-day increase notice.
• Subsidized housing may have extra rules; check an attorney.
• Cities and counties can add their own rules, including rent control and extra notice requirements. Check your local rules too.
