Renting Residential Property

Other Issues

Are there tenants' rights not covered in URLTA?

Yes. URLTA does not provide for security of tenure; control over rent increases; payment of reduced rent for reduced services; freedom of speech in the relationship with a landlord; appointment of a receiver to manage the building if the landlord fails to do so; payment of interest on the security deposit; separate handling of the deposit and the rent money; or condominium conversion protection for tenants.
