In the wake of the law that will probably legalize the use of cannabis, beginning on July 1, 2018, rental property owners and tenants of rental income housing are quite concerned.
Indeed, the odours resulting from cannabis smoke are very strong and quite annoying for most people. In a building, ventilation systems and the proximity of people to each other are elements that converge into a problematic situation for everyone’s life.
First of all, before meeting for the signing of the lease, you must send the regulations of the building to the tenant. To do this, you can use the APQ regulations, but make sure you have the most recent version of them.
Moreover, the new version includes restrictions that concern the cultivation and smoking of marihuana.
Tenants must be given enough time to review the regulations prior to signing the lease.
