Questions about 138 Pears Ave

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

Is 138 Pears Ave rent controlled?

The register lists 138 Pears Ave as social housing. In social housing, rent for most tenants is set as a share of household income (rent-geared-to-income) rather than by the provincial rent increase guideline, so the usual rent control rules largely do not decide what you pay. Units let at market rent in the same building can follow the guideline. Ask the housing provider which applies to your unit.
