Landlord and Tenant Board of Ontario

The Landlord and Tenant Board of Ontario is a government organization that resolves disputes between landlords and tenants. It handles issues such as rent increases, maintenance problems, and eviction notices. The Board provides a formal process for both parties to present their cases and seeks to ensure fair treatment according to Ontario's residential tenancy laws. It plays a crucial role in protecting the rights of both landlords and tenants, promoting a balanced rental market, and offering guidance on legal responsibilities. Decisions made by the Board can be appealed in certain circumstances.
