Tenants at 111 Lawton Blvd. receive N1 notice of rent increase late.

-

On October 19, 2022, a number of tenants if not all tenants received their N1 notice of rent increase from Akelius Canada Ltd. not signed and backdated to September 28, 2022.

Rules for rent increase

In most cases, the rent for a residential unit can be increased 12 months after either:

  • the last rent increase
  • the date the tenancy begins

The landlord must give a tenant written notice of a rent increase at least 90 days before it takes effect.

The proper forms for this notice are available from the Landlord and Tenant Board. If your landlord has not provided the proper notice, or you believe that your rent has been raised by an improper amount, you can dispute it at the Landlord and Tenant Board within 12 months after the amount was first charged.

NOTE: Tenants who are entitled to the 0.82% above guideline rent reduction (see the previous post for an explanation) your N1 rent increase form is wrong and does not include the discount which took place on October 1, 2022. The increase of 2.5% should be based on the rent figure of September1, 2022, and the reduction taking place on October 1, 2022.

The landlord Akelius Canada Ltd. will not automatically reduce your monthly rent on October 1, 2022, by 0.82% unless you inform them you are entitled to it by law as laid out in the 2006 order file number TSL-84316. Please review the video listed in the previous post.

Akelius Canada Ltd. is in violation of serving proper notice of the rent increase for January 1, 2023, as the tenants were given a 73-day notice instead of the required and legal 90 days.

Signature of NI Notice - No signature on N1 Form

If there are multiple landlords, only one of them needs to sign the notice. The 
date next to the signature is the date the notice will be given or sent to the tenant.

THINKING ABOUT RENTING FROM AKELIUS? THINK TWICE. IT DOESN'T MATTER HOW MUCH YOU PAY FOR RENT THE COMPANY HAS VERY LITTLE RESPECT FOR TENANTS. WITH THE CONSTANT RENOVATION NOISE ASK FOR A DISCOUNT IN RENT.

Living in an Akelius property has been THE WORST experience I have had in nearly 15 years of renting properties in London. FOR OVER A YEAR NOW, I HAVE BEEN LIVING ON A LOUD, FILTHY AND UNSAFE CONSTRUCTION SITE! Save yourself the time and headache - go inform yourself and read the many bad reviews their tenants have posted online (Trustpilot, Google Reviews, Yelp). Now, search Google News for their negative media coverage. Then, ask yourself - why take the chance with Akelius? There are countless other properties with better landlords to choose from. COMPENSATION: After much complaining and having to unnecessarily follow-up my emails repeatedly as they were attempting to ignore me, Akelius reluctantly offered 20% rent reduction. They initially tried to scam me

It plans to cut construction staff by 400 by the end of 2022 and focus on new builds, as well as upgraded properties.

The Sweden-based company manages a total of 44,000 rental apartments. In May the UN accused the firm of breaching the international human rights of its tenants by having them live in poor conditions, aggressively increasing rents and threatening evictions.
