Legal Question about raising Rent?
Post Body

My landlord wants to raise my rent 14.6% from $1570 to $1800. No lease, month-to-month.

Since that's over a 10% increase, the law says it can't go into effect until 60 days after written notice.

He notified me of the rent increase in person and then texted me: "Please let me know what you decide to do, do you stay or not?" to which I said "Yes, I'll stay."

Could my landlord argue in court the text is sufficient "written notice"?

I don't want to go to court or get evicted, so if there's a chance he can, then I don't want to push it.
