I'm building a compliance tool for Ontario self-managing landlords — here's what and why

I work in property management and kept seeing the same pattern. Landlords losing LTB cases not because they were in the wrong, but because their documentation was a mess. Wrong deemed service dates. Missed remedy deadlines. No paper trail for entry notices. Rent arrears tracked in a spreadsheet nobody updated.

So I started building something specifically for Ontario self-managing landlords — not a generic property management platform, something built entirely around Ontario's Residential Tenancies Act.

Here's what it does:

  • Tracks N4, N5, N8, N12 notices and automatically calculates deemed service dates based on how you delivered them
  • Tells you exactly when the remedy period ends and when you're clear to file the L1
  • Shows rent arrears across all your units in one dashboard — who's paid, who's partial, who's overdue
  • Flags the N1 90-day window so you never miss the deadline to raise rent
  • Logs every entry notice with date, reason and delivery method — your defense against a T2
  • Documents maintenance requests with timestamps — your defense against a T6
  • Exports a clean compliance report for your paralegal or LTB hearing

Still building. Attaching a screenshot of the demo.

If you're an Ontario landlord and any of this sounds familiar — I'd genuinely like to hear from you.

I got tired of seeing Ontario landlords lose LTB cases over bad paperwork so I started building something, honest feedbacks are welcome

Not a landlord myself but I work in property management and kept seeing the same thing — people losing hearings or getting cases dismissed not because they were wrong, but because their documentation was a mess. Wrong dates, no paper trail, missed deadlines.

So I started building a tool. Nothing fancy yet, just a working demo. It tracks N4/N5 notices and calculates deemed service dates automatically, shows rent arrears across all units in one place, flags the N1 90-day window before you miss it, logs entry notices so you have a dated record if a T2 ever comes up, and keeps maintenance requests documented with timestamps.

All built around Ontario's RTA specifically, not adapted from some American property management software.

Sharing the demo screenshot because I want brutal feedback — does this solve something real or am I building for a problem that doesn't exist the way I think it does?
