How often can rent be raised in Utah?
Utah does not limit how often rent can be raised at the state level, but each increase still needs 15 days' written notice and must not violate a fixed-term lease.
Step-by-step answer
- Step 1
Fixed-term leases
While you're inside a fixed-term lease in Utah, the rent generally cannot change until the lease ends. That effectively limits increases to once per lease cycle.
- Step 2
Month-to-month tenancies
On a month-to-month tenancy, the landlord can propose a new rent whenever they give 15 days' written notice. Multiple increases in a short window can still be challenged as unreasonable or retaliatory.
