Landlord claims renovation but I suspect it's a rent hike scam

Posted by GTARentHunter • May 29, 2026 • 10 comments

My landlord just notified us of renovations starting in 2 months, but I'm suspicious it’s a ploy to increase rent. I've already looked into local tenant laws and contacted neighbors. Has anyone dealt with similar situations? What steps can I take to verify this is legit and protect my rental rights?
