Questions about 99 Dowling Ave
Answered from the City’s register and Ontario’s Residential Tenancies Act. General information, not legal advice.
Is 99 Dowling Ave rent controlled?
Very likely. The register says 99 Dowling Ave was built in 1955. 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.
