Tenant Services: Including Advocacy Assistance Within Landlord-Tenant Board Proceedings
Question: What should I do if my landlord is attempting to impose an unlawful rent increase?
Answer: If you're facing an unlawful rent increase, it's crucial to understand your rights. Under Ontario's Residential Tenancies Act, 2006, S.O. 2006, c. 17, landlords can only increase rent according to specific guidelines and must provide 90 days' written notice. For assistance in challenging an illegal rent increase or other tenant rights issues, Civil Litigations Paralegal Services offers knowledgeable guidance and effective advocacy.
