Questions about 490 Eglinton Ave E

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

Is 490 Eglinton Ave E rent controlled?

Very likely. The register says 490 Eglinton Ave E was built in 1964. 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.
