Tenants: What to do if your Home Needs Repairs
Steps you'll need to take
What if part or all of your rental unit has been damaged and you can no longer use it?
If you are unable to use your unit because of damage or fire, and you did not cause the damage, you can:
- Immediately move out AND notify your landlord within one week to end your rental contract, OR
- vacate the part of your rental unit that is damaged and unusable and be responsible to pay rent for no more than the fair rental value of the remaining part of the rental unit that you live in.
