 Welcome to the Residential Tendencies Authority. In this video we cover taking photos in a rental property. There may be times when photos of a property need to be taken, such as when it is being sold or if things need to be fixed. There are laws that cover taking photos in certain situations. For example, a tenant needs to give written permission before any photos showing their personal items can be used for advertising. But the law doesn't cover all situations. You can talk to your landlord or property manager if you have questions or are worried about photos getting taken in your rental property and the RTA can give you information on your rights and responsibilities. If you and your landlord or property manager can't agree on taking photos, the RTA can help. In summary, taking photos of a rental property is sometimes necessary. Talk to your landlord or property manager if you have any concerns.
