Xenigo...

Being you're in cali, you gotta follow all of the tenants rights rules.. This is direct from the consumer affairs division in cali... you should check that out..

____
How much advance notice must the landlord give the tenant?

If you have a month-to-month (or shorter) periodic rental agreement, the landlord must give you at least 30 days’ advance written notice of a rent increase.

The landlord must give you at least 30 days’ advance notice if the rent increase is 10 percent (or less) of the rent charged at any time during the 12 months before the rent increase takes effect.
The landlord must give you at least 60 days’ advance notice if the rent increase is greater than 10 percent of the rent charged at any time during the 12 months before the rent increase takes effect.
_____

Given that fact there, you should take into account your raise in rent and the notice you must give the tenant before that increase..

Also.. the law adds 5 days for mailed notices of change of terms of tenancy. A mailed 30-day notice is effective 35 days later; a mailed 60-day notice is effective 65 days later.

Hope that helps in your decision..
