As Such, The Increased Rent Is Contrary To Law, And I Will Continue To Pay The Usual Rent Amount Form
Use a As Such, The Increased Rent Is Contrary To Law, And I Will Continue To Pay The Usual Rent Amount template to make your document workflow more streamlined.
What this rent notice does
This form is a written tenant notice stating that a rent increase is contrary to law and that the tenant will continue paying the usual rent amount. It identifies the rental property, parties, existing rent, disputed increase, and intended payment position. In signNow, upload the notice, review detected fillable fields, add tenant and landlord recipients, place signature and date fields, then send it electronically. ESIGN and UETA generally recognize electronic signatures for qualifying transactions, but state landlord-tenant law controls notice content, delivery, timing, and payment disputes.
Who uses this rent notice
Tenants and property managers
Tenants use this notice to document a specific objection to an increased rent and state the amount they intend to continue paying. Property managers and landlords may receive it, review the lease terms, and preserve delivery and response records. State law determines whether additional notice, payment, or court procedures apply.
Advisers and representatives
Housing advocates, attorneys, and authorized representatives may prepare or review the notice when a tenant disputes a rent increase. The document should be tied to the correct property, lease, parties, dates, and payment records rather than treated as a substitute for legal advice or a court filing.

Legal standing of the rent notice
A signed rent notice can provide evidence of the tenant’s stated position, delivery, and intent when the record is properly retained. ESIGN, 15 U.S.C. ch. 96, and UETA generally recognize qualifying electronic signatures, but they do not override state landlord-tenant rules or make the notice a court order, deed, will, or family-law decree.

Risks of an incomplete rent notice

Payment dispute

Troubleshooting this rent notice
Resolve field, consent, plan, and retention questions before sending this rent notice so the signed record remains complete and usable.
Upload the completed rent notice to signNow, place required signature and date fields, and send it through the Business plan. The plan includes legally binding eSignatures, templates, and audit trails. For interstate transactions, ESIGN applies; state law may also govern.
Use signNow’s field editor to place the tenant’s signature, date, address, property address, rent amount, and payment statement fields. Auto-detection can identify fillable areas after upload, but review every field before sending.
A Business plan account includes audit trails and legally binding eSignatures at $8 per user per month with annual billing. Business Premium adds bulk send at $15 per user per month, while Enterprise adds advanced signer authentication.
For consumer-facing electronic records, obtain consent and provide the required ESIGN disclosure under 15 U.S.C. §7001(c). Confirm the signer can access the electronic format and explain how consent may be withdrawn.
Business plans include 100 signature invites per user annually, with overage fees. A recurring rent-notice workflow should monitor invite usage; the Site License uses $1.50 signature invites and unlimited users for qualifying volume.
If the notice contains health information, HIPAA compliance requires a business associate agreement. Otherwise, retain the signed notice and audit trail according to the applicable lease, dispute, and state-record policies rather than assuming a federal period.
