Mississippi Notice of Non-Renewal

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

Mississippi rules at a glance

Mississippi rules for a Notice of Non-Renewal
Month-to-month termination30 days’ written notice (week-to-week: 7 days)Miss. Code §89-8-19
Rent-increase noticeNo specific statute; month-to-month changes need the 30-day termination noticeMiss. Code §89-8-19
Rent controlNone
Rent increasesThere’s no statewide notice rule for rent increases. Rent under a fixed-term lease can’t change mid-term unless the lease allows it; for a month-to-month tenancy, an increase effectively requires the 30-day written notice needed to end the tenancy (§89-8-19).

Rent, late fees & rent increases

  • Late fees — Mississippi has no statute capping late fees or requiring a grace period. The fee must be written into the lease and should be a reasonable estimate of the landlord’s cost of late payment — an excessive fee risks being treated as an unenforceable penalty.
  • Rent increases — There’s no statewide notice rule for rent increases. Rent under a fixed-term lease can’t change mid-term unless the lease allows it; for a month-to-month tenancy, an increase effectively requires the 30-day written notice needed to end the tenancy (§89-8-19).
  • Courts follow the lease — In a nonpayment eviction, the judge must apply the rental agreement the landlord and tenant signed (§89-8-13(5)) — so clear rent, fee and due-date terms matter more in Mississippi than in most states.
  • Rent control — Mississippi has no rent control, and state law limits municipalities from regulating private residential rents.
