Nebraska Rent Increase Notice

A Nebraska landlord has to give tenants written notice before rent goes up. How much notice — and whether there’s a cap — is set by statute. Here’s what Nebraska’s says.

Nebraska rules at a glance

Nebraska rules for a Rent Increase Notice
Notice before an increase30 days. No Nebraska statute sets a separate rent-increase notice period; for a month-to-month tenancy an increase is a change of terms, so the 30-day termination notice is the practical minimum.Neb. Rev. Stat. §76-1437(2)
Rent capSince 2025, cities, villages and counties may not enact or enforce rent control on private property, with exceptions for voluntary rent-restriction and affordable-housing programs.Neb. Rev. Stat. §13-331

Rent, late fees & rent increases

Nebraska has no statute capping residential late fees and no mandatory grace period. A late fee is enforceable because the lease provides for it; the Act doesn’t set a number.

  • Rent increases — No Nebraska statute sets a separate rent-increase notice period. Rent is locked for a fixed-term lease; for a month-to-month tenancy an increase is a change of terms, so the 30-day termination notice under §76-1437(2) is the practical minimum.
  • Rent control — LB 266, signed April 7, 2025, bars cities, villages and counties from enacting or enforcing an ordinance that imposes rent control on private property. Voluntary, contractual rent-restriction programs and affordable-housing ordinances using land-use or inclusionary-housing requirements are excepted (§13-331).
  • Electronic notices — Notices and documents under the Act may be delivered electronically to an email address — or posted online with separate notice — where the tenant or landlord has consented (§76-1413, as amended by LB 185 in 2025).

Nebraska Rent Increase Notice FAQs

Does Nebraska have rent control or a late-fee cap?

Neither. Since LB 266 (2025), local governments can’t impose rent control (§13-331), and Nebraska has no statutory late-fee cap — the lease sets the fee.
