About These Landlord & Tenant Tools

Rental disputes move on short clocks — eviction notices carry response deadlines measured in days, deposit-return windows are set by statute, and a defective notice can restart the whole process. These free wizards work through your specific situation, on whichever side of the tenancy you stand, and produce a personalized report: the rules that apply, your deadlines, the evidence to gather, and how the tribunal or court process actually runs.

Tenants: start with the eviction defence, deposit recovery, rent increase, repairs, or lease-breaking wizard that matches your problem. Landlords: the eviction wizard maps notice requirements and grounds, and the documentation organizer builds the evidence file tribunals expect. Every wizard covers both Canadian residential tenancy regimes (RTA/LTB and provincial equivalents) and US state landlord-tenant law, and everything runs free and confidentially in your browser.

Frequently Asked Questions

How fast do I need to respond to an eviction notice?
Sometimes within days. Notice periods run from 3 days (some US states, non-payment) to 14–60 days depending on the ground and jurisdiction, and hearing requests have their own deadlines. Run the eviction defence wizard immediately — deadline urgency is the first thing it checks.
Can my landlord keep my security deposit?
Only for lawful deductions — typically unpaid rent and damage beyond normal wear and tear, itemized within a statutory window (14–60 days in most US states). In Ontario, damage deposits are illegal outright. Many states award 2x–3x penalties for wrongful withholding.
Is my rent increase legal?
It depends on your regime: Ontario caps most increases at the annual guideline (2.5% in recent years) with 90 days' written notice, California caps at 5% + CPI under AB 1482, and most other US states have no cap but require proper notice. The rent increase checker maps your rules.
Do these wizards work for landlords too?
Yes. The eviction wizard and documentation organizer are built for landlords, and the hearing prep wizard serves both sides. Landlord-tenant law punishes procedural mistakes on both sides — the tools flag them before they cost you.
Do these cover both Canada and the US?
Yes — every wizard asks your province or state first and adjusts notice periods, deposit rules, rent-control rules, and tribunal processes to your jurisdiction.
