Tenant Services: Including Advocacy Assistance Within Landlord-Tenant Board Proceedings
Question: What should a tenant do if a landlord fails to maintain their rental property in Ontario?
Answer: If a landlord fails to keep a rental unit in good repair as required by Ontario law, tenants can file a T6 Application with the Landlord Tenant Board to address the maintenance issues. Before taking this step, tenants may find it beneficial to try negotiating directly with their landlord to resolve the problem. For more complex situations, Kush Legal Services offers support in reviewing the facts, negotiating resolutions, and advocating at Landlord Tenant Board hearings, ensuring your tenant rights are protected.
Legal Rights and Duties Affecting Residential Tenants
Your home is where your heart is and where your most special memories are made. Of course, home always means something uniquely special to everyone. Kush Law recognizes the importance of your home while also appreciating that a legal services provider must maintain impartial empathy and remain focused as an objective advisor and negotiator. Kush Law helps tenants to resolve disputes by first reviewing the facts and issues and then by working to negotiate a resolution with the landlord. If resolution is evasive, Kush Law can prepare the required Landlord Tenant Board forms and advocate at Landlord Tenant Board hearings.
