Rights & Responsibilities

Even if you have housing, you may still have challenges. Knowing about housing laws may help you avoid problems and get out of difficult situations. 

 

Renters Rights and Responsibilities

Knowing your rights can protect you from a rental agreement that is unfair.  Contact the Landlord and Tenant Board to learn about your rights and responsibilities.

For more information about rents, signing agreements, first and last month’s rent, repairs, tenant rights and other issues, go to Settlement.Org (Tenant Rights and Responsibilities or Rent a Home).
