Rights & LegalHow a BC tenant can end a fixed-term tenancy early because of family violence, household violence or long-term care under RTA section 45.1: who qualifies, who can sign the RTB-49, the notice, and what landlords must keep confidential.
Rights & LegalWhen a BC landlord can remove or restrict parking, storage, laundry or another service, how the RTB-24 notice and rent reduction work, and what tenants can do, from RTA section 27 and RTB Policy Guideline 22.
Rights & LegalIn BC, a landlord must offer the tenant two opportunities for the move-out inspection, the second on the RTB-22 Notice of Final Opportunity. Here is how to schedule both, serve the notice in time and protect the deposit claim.
Lease & AgreementsIn BC, a tenant can't sublet a unit or assign a tenancy without the landlord's written consent. With six months or more left on a fixed term the landlord can't unreasonably refuse, can't charge for consenting, and an unauthorized sublet is cause for a One Month Notice.
Rights & LegalA fire, flood or earthquake that makes a BC rental unlivable can end the tenancy without notice, under the doctrine of frustration. Here is when that applies, what happens to rent and deposits, and what changes if the unit can be repaired.
GeneralAlberta has no rent cap and no special increase for upgrades. New windows do not let a landlord raise rent sooner, more often or mid-term; the 365-day and notice rules apply as usual.
Maintenance & RepairsA burst pipe lets an Ontario landlord enter without notice. A dripping tap does not, even if the tenant asked for the repair. Here is how the entry rules apply to plumbing.
GeneralMeasuring or replacing windows in a tenanted Alberta unit needs 24 hours' written, signed notice, entry between 8 a.m. and 8 p.m. and not on a holiday. Here is how section 23 applies, with a sample notice.
Maintenance & RepairsWith proper written notice, a BC landlord may enter for pest control even if the tenant objects. If a tenant blocks entry or will not prepare, here are the lawful options.
Maintenance & RepairsCockroaches move between units, so treating one apartment rarely works. Here is how a BC landlord organizes building-wide treatment, notices and unit preparation.
Maintenance & RepairsIn British Columbia the landlord is generally responsible for treating bed bugs. Here is who pays, when a tenant can be charged, and how notice to enter works.
Maintenance & RepairsTwo separate notices usually apply before a pest treatment in a BC rental: the landlord's 24-hour entry notice and the licensed applicator's 72-hour treatment notice.
Maintenance & RepairsHow to replace windows while a tenant lives in a BC rental: written entry notice, scheduling the work, quiet enjoyment and when tenants are compensated.
Rights & LegalOwning a BC rental while living in Ontario: the BC duties that need someone on site, how to serve notices from a distance, and when paid help must be licensed.
Rights & LegalFrom September 21, 2026, the L1 non-payment hearing changes shape: a tenant who wants to raise section 82 issues — maintenance, illegal entry, harassment — inside the arrears case must first pay at least 50% of the arrears claimed, at least seven days before the hearing, with advance notice of the issues. The right to
Rights & LegalOttawa city council passed its Rental Renovation Licence bylaw 21–5 on July 15, 2026, and it takes effect January 1, 2027: a municipal licence within 7 days of issuing an N13, a building permit secured before the notice goes out, and a city-produced tenant rights guide served alongside it. Here's what the bylaw actuall
Rights & LegalCompliance doesn't scale smoothly with your portfolio — it steps. A purchaser's own-use notice works at three units and fails at four. Fire alarm obligations change character the day a building has a monitored system. Toronto's RentSafeTO program switches on at three storeys and ten units, the multi-residential tax cla
Rights & LegalEvery property management relationship runs on one document most people read twice: once before signing, once during a dispute. The service agreement decides who speaks for the owner, what the manager may spend without asking, what the fee schedule actually contains, how many days' notice ends the relationship — and wh
Rights & LegalOntario has no single heating law. Your minimum temperature and your heating season come from your municipality — and Toronto's dates moved in 2025, which most guides still haven't noticed. What the province requires, what four cities require, and the winter obligations that start before you think.
Rights & LegalEvery day a unit sits empty costs you rent you never get back — and most vacancy isn't created by the market. It's created inside the turnover process: the notice window that gets treated as dead time, the make-ready that starts after the keys come back, the listing that goes live before the unit is ready. Ontario hand
Rights & LegalEvery message to a tenant carries a legal weight — and most landlords can't tell the three tiers apart. Some things must be LTB forms, and no friendly letter can substitute. Some must be written with exact contents the RTA prescribes: the 24-hour entry notice's reason, date, and time; the email-service consent that mak
Rights & LegalNot every tenancy has to end at the Landlord and Tenant Board. Ontario law gives landlords and tenants several legal ways to part company without an eviction hearing — the N11 mutual agreement and cash-for-keys deal, the tenant's own N9 notice, assignment, and negotiated moves — each faster than the queue when done rig
Rights & LegalEvery LTB journey follows the same road: a notice, an application on the Tribunals Ontario Portal, a queue, a fork at mediation, a hearing, an order — and sometimes the Sheriff. This pillar guide maps the entire process end to end for landlords, tenants, and property managers: which notice starts which application, wha
Rights & LegalAn LTB eviction order is not possession — only the Sheriff can enforce it, and the Sheriff has a queue of their own. This guide covers the whole after-the-order world for landlords and tenants: the filing package and the six-month deadline, the fees and the regional wait, the Notice to Vacate, what actually happens on
