Starting June 1, 2020, tenants and landlords of mobile home sites will now have access to the Residential Tenancies Dispute Resolution Service to resolve their tenancy disputes instead of going to court.
Tenants can apply to RTDRS to:
- Recover damages arising from a breach or contravention of the lease
- Receive a rent abatement
- Receive compensation for the costs of performing the landlord’s obligations
- End the tenancy because of the landlord’s breach of the lease
- Recover their security deposit
Landlords can apply to RTDRS to:
- Recover unpaid rent
- Gain possession of the mobile home site by an overholding tenant
- Recover damages arising from a breach or contravention of the lease
- Recover compensation for the use/occupation of the mobile home site by an overholding tenant
- End the tenancy because of the tenant’s substantial breach of the lease
Landlords and tenants still have the option to go to Court to resolve their disputes valued at over $50,000 and for issues that cannot be resolved through the RTDRS. For more information, go to the RTDRS website.
