Ontario RTA — Final Notice Before LTB T6 + Municipal Enforcement
Stage-2 of the Ontario RTA repairs chain. Final notice to the landlord after the stage-1 s.20 demand was ignored, denied, only cosmetically addressed, or where the disrepair has recurred. Documents the continued breach, calculates rent abatement against the LTB precedent banding (5-15% low / 15-30% moderate / 30-50% high / 50-100% severe), and signals concrete intent to file an LTB Tenant Application T6 PLUS a municipal property-standards inspection PLUS a Rental Housing Enforcement Unit referral (RTA s.234 provincial-offence exposure, fines up to $100,000 / $500,000). NOT a T6 form draft — settlement-pressure correspondence only. UPL-safe under LSO By-Law 4.

This letter will cite
Residential Tenancies Act 2006 ss.20, 21, 30 (Tenant Application T6), 31, 234(a)-(b) (provincial offences — fines up to $100,000 / $500,000), 235 (reprisal); Maintenance Standards Regulation O.

Your final notice documents the landlord's failure to repair, calculates rent abatement, and signals concrete intent to file LTB T6 + request a municipal property-standards inspection + RHEU referral.
Final notices are typically shorter than the stage-1 window. 2-3 days for vital-service emergencies; 7 days for general s.20 cases.
