Winter’s coming. Is your rental ready? ❄️

A little prep now can save you from cold apartments, frozen pipes and big repair bills later.

🏠 Tenants: Report heating issues early and keep the heat on to protect your pipes!

🔧 Landlords: Service the heating system, seal drafts, insulate exposed pipes, and plan for snow and ice removal.

Clear communication on both sides keeps everyone warm and safe. Swipe through for the quick checklists 👉

🏠 Who pays when damage happens in a rental?

Under Section 34 of Ontario’s Residential Tenancies Act, tenants can be responsible for undue damage caused by themselves, other occupants, or their guests.

A few things to remember:

🔨 Damage caused by you or your guests? You may be responsible.
🏡 Normal wear and tear? That’s generally not your responsibility.
📢 Something gets damaged? Let your landlord know as soon as possible and discuss how it can be addressed.

Remember, there’s a difference between everyday wear and tear and actual damage!

📦 Wanting to end your tenancy? Know your forms!

In Ontario, the N9 and N11 serve different purposes:

📄 N9: A tenant’s notice to end their tenancy.
🤝 N11: An agreement between a landlord and tenant to end the tenancy on an agreed date.

⚠️ Notice requirements and termination dates matter. Always check which rules apply to your tenancy before making plans to move.

🏠 What is reasonable enjoyment?

As a tenant in Ontario, you have the right to enjoy your rental home without substantial interference. This can involve issues with your landlord, as well as ongoing disturbances caused by another tenant.

🔑 Remember:

✔️ Your landlord cannot substantially interfere with your reasonable enjoyment.

✔️ Ongoing noise or disturbances from another tenant may be worth raising with your landlord.

✔️ Document concerns and communicate in writing.

Not every inconvenience is a violation, and every situation depends on the circumstances.

📖 Want to learn more? Check out Section 22 of Ontario’s Residential Tenancies Act.

🔑 Who can change the locks on a rental unit?

There are rules for both landlords and tenants in Ontario.

🏠 Landlords: If you change or alter the locking system while a tenant is occupying the unit, you must provide the tenant with replacement keys.

👤 Tenants: You cannot change or alter the locks without the landlord’s consent.

The bottom line? Everyone who needs access should have the appropriate key. 🔑

📚 Based on Ontario’s Residential Tenancies Act, 2006, sections 24 & 35.

💸 Rent is due on the first.

Forgot to pay? 😬 Don’t panic…but don’t ignore it either.

If your rent isn’t paid, your landlord may serve you an N4 Notice to End your Tenancy Early for Non-payment of Rent.

An N4 gives you a deadline to pay what you owe. It doesn’t mean you’re automatically evicted, but ignoring it can lead to your landlord applying to the Landlord and Tenant Board.

So… if you’re watching this after the first:

👀 Check your bank account.
💸 Check your rent payment.
📱 And maybe check your landlord’s messages.

🏠 Know your rights. Know your responsibilities.

🔊 Living off-campus means being a good neighbour, too!

Whether it’s music, pets, power tools, or just hanging out with friends, the noise you make can affect the people around you.

North Bay has a Noise Control By-Law that sets rules around different types of noise — so it’s worth knowing the basics before a neighbour comes knocking. 👀

🏠 Know the rules. Keep the peace. Be a good neighbour.
