Canada / New Brunswick
New Brunswick's growing rental market with Residential Tenancies Tribunal oversight, rent increase rules, and bilingual document requirements.
Regulatory Framework
New Brunswick residential tenancies are governed by the Residential Tenancies Act and regulated by the Residential Tenancies Tribunal (RTT). New Brunswick introduced rent increase caps in 2022, limiting annual increases to a percentage set by the province. Landlords must give at least two months' notice for rent increases using prescribed forms. Security deposits are capped at one month's rent and must be deposited with the Residential Tenancies Tribunal within 15 days. The RTT handles all disputes including evictions, deposit claims, and rent increase challenges. Bilingual (English/French) documentation is common given NB's official bilingualism.
