Questions about 1 Havelock St

Answered from the City’s register and Ontario’s Residential Tenancies Act. General information, not legal advice.

Is 1 Havelock St rent controlled?

Very likely. The register says 1 Havelock St was built in 1905. In Ontario, the yearly rent increase guideline applies to units that were first occupied as a home on or before November 15, 2018. Units first occupied after that date are exempt from it. A building of that age is covered, so in most years the rent can rise by no more than the provincial guideline, once every 12 months, with 90 days’ written notice.

Who manages 1 Havelock St?

The City of Toronto’s apartment building register lists Havelock Apartments as the property manager.

What is the RentSafeTO score for 1 Havelock St?

81 out of 100, from the City’s 2025 inspection. The City calls that band “needs improvement”. Under RentSafeTO the City inspects the common areas, mechanical systems and records of every apartment building with three or more storeys and ten or more units.

Does 1 Havelock St allow pets?

The register does not record pets as allowed. Either way, a “no pets” clause in a residential lease is void in Ontario under section 14 of the Residential Tenancies Act.

What amenities does 1 Havelock St have?
