, knows this all too well. "One of the biggest problems we hear from tenants is that their landlords are ignoring complaints about maintenance or repairs," says Nam.
For instance, landlords have to give you 24 hours' written notice before entering your unit, except in emergencies. But, as Nam points out, "One common example of landlord harassment would be landlords trying to enter a tenant's unit without giving that notice." If you're dealing with a tricky landlord, the first step is to try and resolve the issue directly. It's important toSave all your emails, letters, and notes from phone calls. "Having documentation before approaching your landlord is important because it's your strongest evidence if the situation escalates," Nam advises.
Looking at the bigger picture, Nam believes there's still a lot that needs to change to protect renters in Toronto.. This change came about under Premier Doug Ford's government, which rolled back some of the stricter rent control measures previously in place."Not having rent control is probably one of the biggest problems the rental market in Toronto is facing right now," Nam explains.
