Questions about Novus
Answered from the City’s register and Ontario’s Residential Tenancies Act. General information, not legal advice.
Is Novus rent controlled?
Probably not. The register says Novus was built in 2021. 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. So for most units here the landlord can raise the rent by any amount, though still only once every 12 months and with 90 days’ written notice.
Who manages Novus?
The City of Toronto’s apartment building register lists Bentallgreenoak Residential Service as the property manager.
What is the RentSafeTO score for Novus?
100 out of 100, from the City’s 2025 inspection. The City calls that band “satisfactory”. 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 Novus allow pets?
The register records 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 Novus have?
The register records elevator, balconies, air conditioning, pets allowed, bike parking, barrier-free entrance, visitor parking, non-smoking and intercom. It records no laundry room.
How close is Novus to the subway?
St Andrew is the nearest subway station, more than half an hour away on foot. That is estimated from straight-line distance, not a routed walk.
