Track rent, manage deposits, and keep rent receipts for the CRA — free for Canadian landlords and tenants.
Residential tenancies are governed provincially (e.g. Ontario’s Residential Tenancies Act, BC’s RTB). Rules on deposits, rent increases, and notice differ by province.
Tenants may need rent receipts for provincial benefits such as the Ontario Trillium Benefit; landlords report rental income to the CRA. RentyBase timestamps every receipt.
In Ontario, landlords may collect last month’s rent (LMR) as a deposit but not a separate damage deposit; other provinces such as BC allow a half-month security deposit. Rules vary by province.
General information only, not legal or tax advice. Rules vary by region and change over time — confirm with the relevant authority.
It depends on the province. Ontario does not allow a separate damage deposit — only last month’s rent (LMR). Provinces such as British Columbia allow a security deposit of up to half a month’s rent. RentyBase records whatever deposit applies.
Yes — tenants often need rent receipts to claim provincial benefits like the Ontario Trillium Benefit, and a landlord must provide a receipt on request. RentyBase generates one for every logged payment.
Notice periods are set provincially and depend on the reason for ending the tenancy. Always check your provincial residential tenancies authority — RentyBase keeps the rent and communication record either way.
Several provinces set an annual rent-increase guideline (for example Ontario and BC). The cap and exemptions change yearly and vary by province, so check your provincial authority.
