My 13 month lease is coming to an end and my landlord wants me to sign a new lease at an increased rate. My question is: if I "hold over" and no amount was specified in the original lease other than the current rental rate, but instead reads: "such holding over and continued possession shall, if rent is paid by resident and accepted by Management, create a tenancy from month to month upon the same terms herein specified. Can Management raise my month to month rent from the current $725 to $750 without a written agreement?

The agreement needs to be in writing in most areas.
