When tenants usually need help
- You received a notice such as an N4, N12 or N13 and are unsure what it means.
- A landlord says you must leave and you are not sure the notice is valid.
- You received an LTB hearing date.
- Repairs are not being done, or your landlord is asking for something you think is not allowed.
- You are signing a rental agreement and want to understand your lease.
What we can help with
- Explaining what a notice means and what the deadlines are
- Checking whether a notice appears to follow the required form and timing
- Preparing tenant applications to the LTB
- Preparing for a hearing, including evidence and what to say
- Pointing you to other free tenant resources when that is the better fit

Frequently asked questions
Do I have to move out when I get an eviction notice?
Usually not. Only the LTB can order an eviction, and only the Court Enforcement Office can enforce it.
Do you work for landlords too?
Yes. Rent Solutions Inc. serves landlords and tenants. We act for one side in any matter, and we will tell you if we cannot act for you.
Is the free inquiry legal advice?
No. It is a first conversation to understand your situation and point you in the right direction.
Does this apply outside Ontario?
No. This service covers Ontario only.
