What Makes a Toronto Lease Review Different

RTA Compliance

Every clause is checked against Ontario's Residential Tenancies Act, 2006 — the law that governs all Toronto rentals, including condos.

Lease Risk Score

Your lease gets a 0–100 risk score so you immediately know how it stacks up in Toronto's high-pressure rental market.

Condo & Fee Detection

Bundled parking, locker, key fob, and amenity fees are flagged separately so you know exactly what you're paying for.

Why Toronto Leases Need Extra Scrutiny

Toronto's rental market is dominated by individually-owned condominium units, many rented out by first-time landlords unfamiliar with the Residential Tenancies Act. That, combined with some of the highest average rents in Canada, above-guideline rent increase (AGI) applications, and significant Landlord and Tenant Board (LTB) hearing backlogs, means a problem clause you sign today can be difficult and slow to fix later.

Condo leases also tend to bundle in extra charges — parking, lockers, key fobs, and amenity access — that are easy to gloss over at signing but add up significantly over a tenancy.

What We Check Against Ontario Law

  • Security deposit and last month's rent — capped at one month's rent under the RTA, with no separate damage deposit allowed.
  • Parking, locker, and key fob fees — flagged when bundled into rent in a way that obscures the real monthly cost or appears non-refundable.
  • Condo amenity fees passed through as lease charges — checked against what the RTA actually allows a landlord to charge a tenant.
  • Above-guideline rent increase (AGI) language — flagged if the lease implies a unit-specific increase without a proper LTB order.
  • Landlord entry notice — the RTA requires 24 hours written notice; clauses allowing condo staff or landlords broader access are void.
  • N12/N13 renoviction and personal-use language, including the right of first refusal and compensation requirements.
