The essentials for living in a Charlebois-managed home. Your lease has the details for your home, and we are always glad to go through any of it with you.
Rent and receipts
Your lease sets your rent, the day it is due and how it is paid. If you are unsure of any of it, or would like to change how you pay, call, text or email us and we will sort it out with you.
You are entitled to a receipt for rent you have paid, and we are glad to provide one whenever you ask.
Service requests
Tell us what needs attention by call, text or email. Give us your building and unit, what is happening and when it suits you to have someone in. Photos help.
Ontario law asks us to give written notice before we enter your home, other than in an emergency, and we do.
Emergencies
If anyone is in danger, such as a fire, a smell of gas or a medical emergency, call 911 first.
Then call us on 613-422-7653. For urgent problems in your home, such as a major leak or no heat, please phone rather than email so we can act quickly.
Moving in
Your move-in is arranged with our team ahead of time: the date, your keys or entry access, and anything particular to your building.
Set up your utilities and tenant insurance before you move, and let us know about anything in the home that needs attention in the first days.
Moving out
In Ontario, ending a tenancy starts with written notice from the tenant: the Landlord and Tenant Board’s N9 form, given at least 60 days before the day you leave and no earlier than the end of your term.
Speak with us first. We will explain the timing for your lease and help you with the form.
Parking
Parking arrangements differ from building to building. Your lease sets out whether a space is included and any rules that apply.
For visitor parking, a second vehicle or a change, call or text 613-422-7653.
Insurance
We encourage every resident to carry tenant insurance, which protects your belongings and covers you if something in your home causes damage elsewhere.
Your lease sets out what is required for your home. Ask us if you are unsure.
Living in your building
Quiet enjoyment, shared spaces, garbage and recycling, smoking and pets are covered by your lease and any notices in your building.
If something affects your enjoyment of your home, tell us. We would rather hear about it early and handle it fairly.
Your rights
Ontario’s Residential Tenancies Act sets out the rights and responsibilities of residents and landlords alike. We want you to know yours.
Official guides and forms are available from the Landlord and Tenant Board and Renting in Ontario.
Details such as rent due dates, parking and building rules vary by home and are set out in your lease. If you cannot find an answer here, call or text 613-422-7653 and we will point you to it.
