1. Nebraska Notice Requirements, Neb. Rev. Stat. § 76-1414 and § 76-1437

Under Nebraska law, for a month-to-month (periodic) tenancy, a landlord who wishes to change the rent or other material terms must provide written notice of the change. The notice must be delivered in accordance with Neb. Rev. Stat. § 76-1413.

• At least 30 days' advance written notice is required before a rent increase or other change to a month-to-month tenancy becomes effective.
• The notice must clearly state the new rent amount (if any), the effective date, and any other changed terms.
• If the tenancy is under a fixed-term lease, the lease terms control renewal and any rent adjustment rights.
• No rent increase may take effect during a fixed-term lease unless the lease expressly permits it or the tenant agrees in writing.
• Delivery methods include personal service, first-class mail, and other methods permitted by the lease or statute.
