Régie du logement

Organisation's logo

The Régie du logement du Québec (RDL) is an agency of the Government of Quebec, which governs relations between the owners of homes and their tenants. It was created in 1974 and its main offices are in the Olympic Village (Montreal).

The Board is responsible for dealing with disputes between landlords and tenants and has exclusive jurisdiction to hear cases relating to leases residential worth less than $70,000 .[1]

It acts as a specialized tribunal to rule on rent increases, the lease conditions, noise, heating, repairs, and the termination of the leases. It bases its decisions on the particular provisions of the Act respecting the Régie du logement and the Civil Code of Québec .

It publishes a series of forms of lease - whose use is mandatory since September 1996 [2]- and a series of recommendations on the average increase in rents for one year.

Each year, the board receives more than 800,000 requests for information from the public .[3]
