New York Month-to-Month Lease Agreement

Termination Notice – State law requires the tenant or landlord to give one month’s notice (§ 232-B). In New York City, the notice is 30 days for a tenant who has been with the property for less than one year, 60 days for a tenant who has been with the property for between one and two years, and 90 days for a tenant who has been with the property for more than two years (§ 226-C(2)).

Increasing Rent – If the landlord raises the rent by more than 5%, they must give a 30-day notice for tenants who have rented for less than one year, a 60-day notice for tenants who have rented for between one and two years, and a 90-day notice for tenants who have rented for more than two years (RPP § 226-c).
