Connecticut Notice of Non-Renewal

This Notice of Non-Renewal is built with Connecticut as the governing state. These are the Connecticut landlord-tenant rules that most often bear on it, with the statute for each.

Connecticut rules at a glance

Connecticut rules for a Notice of Non-Renewal
Notice to quit (month-to-month)	At least 3 days before a summary-process (eviction) caseC.G.S. §47a-23
Rent-increase notice	45 days in writing (one full rental period for a lease of one month or less)C.G.S. §47a-4e
Rent control	None statewide; local fair rent commissions can roll back excessive increasesC.G.S. §7-148b
Rent increases	No increase takes effect unless the tenant received written notice at least 45 days in advance — or, for a lease with a term of one month or less, notice equal to one full term. Silence isn’t agreement, and rent can’t rise mid-lease (§47a-4e, for leases entered into, renewed or extended on or after October 1, 2024).

Rent, late fees & rent increases

Connecticut’s 2023 and 2024 housing acts reshaped the money side of a lease: late charges are tightly capped, most up-front fees are banned, and rent increases need advance written notice.

Grace period — Tenants get a 9-day grace period after the due date (4 days for a one-week tenancy). No late charge can be assessed, and no eviction for nonpayment can begin, before it runs (§47a-15a).
Late-fee cap — A late charge must be in a written lease and may not exceed the lesser of $5 per day up to $50, or 5% of the delinquent payment — and only one late charge per late payment, however long it stays unpaid (§47a-15a). A lease clause charging more, or charging during the grace period, is unenforceable (§47a-4).
Up-front fees — Beyond the security deposit and first month’s rent, a landlord may charge only a tenant-screening fee (capped at $50, adjusted for inflation) and a deposit for keys or special equipment — no application, move-in or move-out fees. A landlord who charges the screening fee must give the applicant a copy of the report (or how to get it) and the screening company’s receipt (§47a-4d).
Rent increases — No increase takes effect unless the tenant received written notice at least 45 days in advance — or, for a lease with a term of one month or less, notice equal to one full term. Silence isn’t agreement, and rent can’t rise mid-lease (§47a-4e, for leases entered into, renewed or extended on or after October 1, 2024).
Fair rent commissions — Towns above a population threshold (25,000, being lowered to 15,000 under a November 2025 special-session housing act) must have a fair rent commission that can hear tenant complaints and roll back increases it finds harsh and unconscionable (§§7-148b–7-148f).
All-in advertised rent — Since October 1, 2025, advertised rent must include the periodic or recurring fees the tenant is required to pay, with limited exceptions such as pet charges and separately paid utilities (P.A. 25-44).
