Landlord and Tenant Board
Disputes involving housing can quickly become stressful and personal. Whether you are a tenant worried about your home or a landlord trying to protect your investment, navigating the Landlord and Tenant Board (LTB) can feel overwhelming. At Boyd Paralegal, we provide clear advice, steady support, and practical representation to help you resolve disputes efficiently and respectfully.
Understanding the Landlord Tenant Board
The Landlord and Tenant Board is an Ontario tribunal that resolves disputes under the Residential Tenancies Act. LTB matters are time-sensitive and procedural, and mistakes can lead to delays, dismissed applications, or unfavourable outcomes.
Common issues heard by the LTB include:
- Non-payment or persistent late payment of rent
- Eviction applications and eviction defence
- Maintenance and repair disputes
- Rent increases and illegal charges
- Harassment, interference, or entry issues
- Termination of tenancies and notice disputes
Both tenants and landlords have rights—and obligations—under the law.
