Questions about 1700 Finch Ave E

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

Is 1700 Finch Ave E rent controlled?

The register lists 1700 Finch Ave E as Toronto Community 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.
