What Kansas law says

Notice before a rent increase	No statute — Kansas sets no specific advance notice for rent increases. A month-to-month tenancy may be ended by either party with written notice ending the tenancy on a rent-paying date at least 30 days after the notice is received; week-to-week requires 7 days. A landlord changing the rent on a periodic tenancy therefore generally gives at least that much notice. A landlord may not raise rent in retaliation for protected tenant complaints, except as § 58-2572(c) allows. Source: K.S.A. 58-2570(a)-(b); K.S.A. 58-2572
Rent control / increase limits	Preempted: no county, city, township or other political subdivision may enact, maintain or enforce rent control on privately owned residential or commercial property (voluntary incentive agreements excepted). Source: K.S.A. 12-16,120
