This guide was developed by the City of St. John's to help tenants understand their rights and responsibilities. It reflects the Residential Tenancies Act, 2018 in force since January 1, 2019.
This guide was created by Service NL and provides general information about the Residential Tenancies Act, 2018 and Regulations as well as the process of dispute resolution offered by the Residential Tenancies program. It is essential for both landlords and tenants to understand their rights and responsibilities so that they each make informed decisions and take appropriate action when a dispute between the parties arises.
