Renting in Manitoba

Before you rent

  • What can you afford each month?
  • Utilities might be separate or included. Find out what is included in the rent.
  • What area do you want to live in? Are there bus routes to the UW campus?
  • Is there air conditioning, and which appliances are included?

Before signing the lease

  • The recommends that you walk through the rental unit with the landlord before you sign the lease, to fill out the initial condition report.
  • The condition report will be used when you move out, to determine if the unit is in the same or worse condition at that time. Anything that has been damaged but is not included in the initial condition report may be taken from your damage deposit.
  • Do not sign a lease unless you are sure you want the unit. If you change your mind, you might lose your deposit or face additional fees.

Avoid scams

  • See the unit (inside and out) before signing a lease.
  • If someone is subletting a unit, never sign the lease documents or send any deposit money to the tenant who is subletting. The deposit and other forms should be sent directly to the landlord or management company.
  • Try to avoid renting from an individual. Renting in a building that is professionally managed by a reputable company presents less risks to tenants.

Avoid eviction

  • Make sure you always pay your rent on time. You cannot withhold rent if you have a disagreement with the landlord, or you will potentially face eviction.
  • Do not disturb other renters (for example: loud parties or fights).
  • Do not let other people live in your unit for extended periods of time unless they are on the lease agreement.
  • Follow the rules outlined in your tenancy agreement provided by the landlord.
