Good to know
- Ontario landlords must keep the home in good repair and meet health, safety and housing standards, even if the lease says otherwise.
- Keep a copy and take dated photos. If nothing is done, you can call your city's property standards office or apply to the Landlord and Tenant Board (form T6).
- Keep paying your rent; holding it back can get you evicted.
