Hey everyone,

I live in a somewhat newly built condo in North York, Ontario. My rent has been decent so far, started at $2050 and they raised by 2% or whatever the maximum was last year. Now the Landlord is saying

"The guideline for rent increases set by Ministry of Municipal Affairs and Housing does not apply to tenants who live in rental units that are partially exempt from the Residential tenancies Act, 2006. IN these cases, the landlord can raise the rent by any amount."

​

If this was the case why didn't they do this previously, I have been here 2 years already?

I am on hold with Landlord and Tenant Board, please help, we can't afford this and they want us to move in March which is ridiculous.
