What Florida law says

Notice before a rent increase	No statute — Florida law sets no specific advance-notice period for rent increases. In practice the rent on a periodic tenancy can be changed only by ending the tenancy with the required notice: 30 days before the end of a monthly period for month-to-month (raised from 15 days in 2023), 7 days for week-to-week, 30 days for quarter-to-quarter, and 60 days for year-to-year. During a fixed-term lease, the rent is whatever the lease says. Since 2023, state law preempts local rules on landlord-tenant notice requirements. Source: Fla. Stat. §§ 83.57, 83.425
Rent control / increase limits	Local rent control is prohibited. Counties and municipalities may not adopt or maintain any measure that would control rents; residential tenancy regulation is preempted to the state. Source: Fla. Stat. §§ 125.0103(2), 83.425
