A lease locks in the rate, unless the lease states otherwise.
A month to month agreement is just that and the landlord can change the terms at any time and the tenet can either agree and remain there, or they can give their 30 day notice and move out. Typically though as a landlord you would want to give 30 days notice on any changes as well, or the courts may get a wee bit upset and you are then dependant on the judges whim.
Edit- Both are written agreements though.
