Ontario Rent Increase Guidelines
Summary
In Ontario, landlords must use Form N1 to notify tenants of rent increases, providing at least 90 days notice. Certain rental units, like care homes and university residences, are partially exempt from the Residential Tenancies Act, 2006. Newly created rental units after November 15, 2018, may be exempt from rent control guidelines, allowing landlords to set and increase rent freely with proper notice. There is no formal registration process for exemption, but units must be newly constructed or extensively renovated after the specified date and not previously rented.Full Conversation
