Please take note: a storage closet is not a den. A den is not a bedroom. A room divider does not take the place of an actual wall, so you cannot call that space a bedroom. If you’re advertising for long term tenants, don’t expect them to sign a fixed term lease so that you can jack the rent up every year without having to adhere to the max percentage defined under the RTA. If you’re renting out a suite in your own house, please remember that you have no more right to enter at will simply because it’s “my place”. Once a tenant signs a rental agreement that unit becomes their home and you must abide by the RTA. If you can’t deal with that then you’re not cut out to be a landlord. When advertising a unit located in your home, it’s relevant and helpful to mention upfront that you have a family of 10 living above the unit. Given that you’re expecting the tenant to live like a monk, that’s only fair, wouldn’t you agree? If you’re selling your home please don’t lie on advertising about the amenities or the square footage. Unless the balcony is actually included in the legal unit entitlement of that condo, you’re not allowed to include it because it doesn’t belong to the unit. Also, a 30 year old “spa” that hasn’t been operational in a decade cannot reasonably be described as an “amenity”. In conclusion, why not stop wasting my time and yours with false advertising and / or unreasonable requirements?
