Ontario Landlord and Tenant Resource

[Salma Valimohamed]

Hey Everyone,

Along the way in my exhaustive quest for good, credible and useful information pertaining to Ontario Landlord and Tenant matters, I came across a blog, written by a Residential Landlord and Tenant Lawyer in Ottawa, Michael Thiele.

He has a variety of blog posts that will give you some good, accurate information on landlord-tenant matters from a legal perspective.  After reading a number of posts, I discovered that there is also a wealth if information if you continue to read the continuation of discussion pertaining to that post in the comments section. 

It covers everything from stressing the importance of good tenant selection, step-by-step of what to do if rent is late, how to deal with bedbugs and other tenant challenges, how to PROPERLY fill out LTB forms so that your files are not rejected, and so on.

I should mention that recently, he doesn't appear to have too many new posts, but there is a wealth of information in previous years when he was contributing to the blog more actively.  It is a lot of reading, but if you are anything like me, and you really want to wrap your head around Ontario's various (and sometimes perplexing, and sometimes outrageously biased) laws affecting landlords, then you will very likely find some very useful information:
