Questions about 8 Hector Ave

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

Is 8 Hector Ave rent controlled?

Very likely. The register says 8 Hector Ave was built in 1957. 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 8 Hector Ave?

The City of Toronto’s apartment building register lists Sterling Karamar Property Management as the property manager.

What is the RentSafeTO score for 8 Hector Ave?
