Rent Increases in Alberta: Rules & Limits

Alberta does not have rent control laws, meaning landlords can increase rent by any amount as long as they follow proper notice periods and frequency rules under the Residential Tenancies Act (RTA).


What Happens If a Tenant Refuses to Pay Rent in Alberta?

If a tenant does not pay rent on time, landlords in Alberta have legal options to recover unpaid rent and evict the tenant if necessary. Here’s what to do:

Serve a 14-Day Eviction Notice

If rent remains unpaid, serve the tenant with a 14-Day Notice to Terminate for Non-Payment of Rent. 

or Apply for an Eviction Order  or REPAYMENT Order 

If the tenant does not pay or move out after 14 days:

  • Apply to the Residential Tenancy Dispute Resolution Service (RTDRS) or Court of King’s Bench for a Possession Order.
  • If approved, hire a civil enforcement agency (bailiff) to remove the tenant legally.





What You Must Do

 

Valuable Items (e.g., electronics, furniture, documents)


Store for at least 30 days and try to contact the tenant.

 

Perishable Items (e.g., food, plants)


Can be disposed of immediately.

 

Garbage or obvious junk


Can be thrown away immediately.

  • If the tenant does not claim their belongings within 30 days, the landlord can:
    • Sell the items to recover unpaid rent.
    • Throw them away if they have little to no value.

4. Recovering Unpaid Rent & Damages

  • Deduct unpaid rent from the security deposit.
  • File a claim with RTDRS (for amounts up to $50,000).
  • If damages exceed $50,000, file a claim in court.
