Toronto Landlord Seeks Above-Guideline Rent Increase

About 40 tenants at Mallory Gardens in Toronto were notified in September of an above-guideline rent increase roughly 5% for 2026, and a landlord application seeks retroactive increases to January 2024. Westbury Rental Residences says it spent over $300,000 on boiler, hot-water and garage repairs; tenants say services remain inadequate and mediation may leave them owing back rent.
