Do I need Tenant Insurance?

Absolutely!   Proof that Insurance is in place with a minimum $2,000,000 in liability is required prior to keys being released for your suite.  The cost of Tenant insurance is minimal, the peace of mind you get in knowing that your family and possessions are covered in the event of fire, flood or theft is priceless.

How Much Notice Do I need to Give to Vacate?

We hope you enjoy living with Urbanlife Management, but in the event you have to move the answer depends on the type of Tenancy Agreement that is in place. 

Yearly Tenancy - Notice to Vacate is required TWO FULL CALENDAR MONTHS in advance of the last day of the term.   For example if your Yearly Periodic Tenancy began on June 1 and you wish to vacate at the end of the Tenancy Year your notice  must be given on or before  the first day of May.

Monthly Tenancy - Notice to Vacate must be given on or before the first day of a calendar month to be effective on the last day of the calendar month.

All Notices to Vacate must be in writing and be signed by at least one leaseholder.
