Rent

How much notice does my landlord need to raise rent in Alberta?

For a month-to-month tenancy, at least three full tenancy months' written notice. For a weekly tenancy, at least 12 tenancy weeks' notice. Rent can't be raised at all during a fixed term, and only once every 12 months.

There's no cap on the amount in Alberta, so the timing and notice rules — plus your option to move at the end of the term — are your main protections.
