There is no New Hampshire statute limiting how much a landlord can raise the rent. If your landlord tries to raise your rent by an unreasonable amount, there is a legal argument that such an increase is not enforceable by a court.

If you are being evicted for not paying rent, your landlord must serve you with a Demand for Rent. The demand tells you how much rent you owe, and cannot ask for more rent than you actually owe. The demand must be served personally (handed to you) or left at your home before or at the same time as the notice to quit.
