State rules
No state cap and no statute fixing an increase-notice period; 30 days is the working standard and most leases say so. Philadelphia and Pittsburgh add tenant-protection rules of their own.
| Amount cap | No cap on the amount. |
|---|---|
| Notice for an increase | 30 days' written notice for a change in a month-to-month tenancy. |
| Frequency | No statewide frequency limit beyond the notice and lease rules. |
| Retaliation window | Retaliation is barred, as everywhere; the presumption window varies — document your dates. |
| Local rent caps | Not barred statewide; check your city. |
| Sources | 68 P.S. § 250.501 (practice standard) |
The Manufactured Home Community Rights Act (68 P.S. § 399.1 et seq.) governs parks; no lot-rent cap.
