LAST MONTH INTEREST PAYMENT

NOTICE FOR 111 LAWTON BLVD.  Your interest payment based on last month's deposit is now available in your account. If you have lived in your unit since 2012, you may qualify for a 6.65% rent reduction . To receive this, you must proactively apply to Akelius Canada Ltd., as they will not send out reminders. The reduction begins on your move-in anniversary. Please refer to your Landlord and Tenant Board order for more information, ORDER TSL-49237-14 Akelius Canada Ltd. has no legal responsibility to notify tenants of an AGI reduction: I have reviewed the current Ontario legislation and Landlord and Tenant Board (LTB) requirements regarding Above Guideline Increases (AGIs).

AKELIUS CANADA LTD. - DO I HAVE TO GET TENANT INSURANCE?

-
  Do I have to get tenant insurance? You are not legally obligated to get tenant insurance but a landlord may require that you get insurance before they rent an apartment to you. Landlords have property insurance for the building or house itself but this doesn’t include coverage for the contents of your rental unit. It is a common misunderstanding that if there is a flood or a fire that was caused by a neighbouring unit or by the landlord themselves they will cover the damages to your contents. Without insurance, you would be required to pay for the replacement costs of your content (furniture, clothes and belongings inside your apartment) yourself. Another misconception is if you cause damage by accident to other units or your landlord’s home, that you won’t have to pay for the damages. If you are held responsible, you can be sued and expected to pay. These are some important reasons why you might consider getting tenant insurance even if your landlord doesn’t ...
