AS A TENANT YOU NEED TO KNOW YOUR RIGHTS!

Did you know that if you are sharing accommodations with more than 3 persons you have the right to ask your landlord the following questions:

  • Is this property licensed by the City of Windsor?

  • Does this property meet all fire and building code safety standards?

  • Are there bedrooms in the basement or in the attic spaces?

  • If so, do they meet the requirements of the Ontario Fire or Building Codes? Does this property have the acceptable number of exits?

  • Does this property have the correct number of smoke alarms? Fire extinguishers? Fire Alarms? Emergency Lights?

  • Living on campus is extremely convenient and puts you at the heart of a small community. It is a great way to get you connected to friends and to campus life. For more information on living on campus, visit the University of Windsor’s Residence page.

  • If you want to live off campus, Places4Students.com is an off-campus housing service solution that can help you find your next home.
