COVID-19 and Tenancies
Landlord-tenant relationships aren’t always as friendly or cordial as one can hope. Some examples of issues that can arise are:
- Disputes regarding a rent increase
- Disputes regarding a notice to rent tenancy
- Disputes regarding repairs & maintenance
Landlords and tenants can apply for dispute resolution when they can’t resolve a problem related to a tenancy.
During COVID-19, the Residential Tenancy Act has been amended to support renters and landlords during the state of emergency. The amendments are in effect during the state of emergency and can be found here: https://www2.gov.bc.ca/gov/content/housing-tenancy/residential-tenancies/covid-19
