In summary, the new Act provides full protec-tion
for tenants, while at the same time encouraging
the eonštruction of new rerttal housing.
l1ie new rent review process is designed to be fast,
friendly and efficient. Now, disputes over rent
increases can be settled within a 90-day period.
Througha network of 21 local Rent Review
Offices, tenants and landlords will have the
opportunity to work bgether with siRentRevieiv
Administrator. • '
This Administrator may arrange meetings be-tween
tenants and landlords, help them in obtaining
and completing any necessary documentš, and
generally, be available to provide free assistance on
any asped of the rent review process.
As well, each Rent Review Office will be pro-viding
an on-going program of seminars and
workšhops. These will be designed spedfically to
educate tenants and landlords abput all parts of
Rent Review.
ExtensioB of Rent Review
In the past, only those rental units built prior
to 1976 were protected by rent review.
The new system:
©All pri vate rental units in Ontario are
protected by rent review whether they
were built prior to 1976 or afterwards.
Rent Review Guideline
Under the previoiis system, a fixed guide­line
could nüt:a]\vays refleet changing
economic condilions.
The neivsijstm:
0 A flexible Rent Review Guideline is
adjusted annualiy and is based on the
change in eost of maintaining a typical
well-iim rental building.
0 The Guideline calculates the average
change in costs over the preceding three-yeai'
period, protecting tenants froni the
effeds of sudden jumps in inflation.
NOTE: The .4%GtndeIine is in effect retroac-tive
from July Ist, 1985 to Dec. 31st, 1986.
The Guideline for 1987 will be announced
within 30 days.

The filingof an appHcation for rent review at
a local Office will set in motion a simplified process.
The Rent Review Administrator, using dear
and concise niies, wll oversee the process from
beginning to end.
A most significant streamlining aspect for both
parties is that landlords will be allowed a fixed
amount for operatingcosts.The result: the elimi-riation
of lengthy disputes between tenants and
landlords over operating costs.
Tb ensure easy access to Administrators, all
, 21 Rent Review Offices in the province will be open
ät hours convenient to the public.
. The Rent Regiistry
Under the previous system, it was not easy
., for a tenant to check whether the rent for
their unit was legal.
, The new system: ' .
® A computerized Rent Registry will record
the maximuni legal rent which can be .
charged for eveiy rental unit in the prov-
; ince. This information will be updated
annualiy according to rent increases set by
the new guideline.
0 Landlords of buildingis containing more
than six rental units will file first, with
landlords of small buildings filing later.
.0 Those landlords required to register first
W i l l file with the Registry the rent that was
adually charged for every rental unit on
JulyU985..
0 Most landlords only be required to
register onetinie.
0 Information from the Registry computers
will be free of chai'ge and available to
everyone by toll-free telephone.
