Do I have to purchase tenant insurance?
Tenant Insurance can protect you in the event of a fire, flood, or any other disaster that will ultimately cause you to have sustained a loss. Rental insurance protects you in two ways:
- Contents Insurance for Personal Possessions: This insures the actual cash value or the replacement cost of your possessions.
- Personal Liability Coverage: This covers claims made against you due to damages or injury in your unit. The minimum amount of Personal Liability Coverage should be $1,000,000.00.
Tenant insurance is very affordable and is something that is very important in the event of an emergency. We urge all tenants to look into this and make sure that they are adequately covered.

How much are late fees?
Per RTB, a tenant is responsible to pay the landlord the full rent on the day the rent is due. If the rent is not paid on time, the landlord may charge the tenant a late payment fee. A landlord may charge a late payment fee of:
- up to $10.00 for the day the rent was due; and
- up to $2.00 for each day after the due date that the rent is late in any consecutive number of rental payment periods, to a maximum of $100.00
When a landlord charges a lat payment fee, the tenant must pay the daily rate:
- up to and including the day they actually pay the rent in full; or
- the fee reaches the $100.00 maximum.
