A private boarder—someone who lives in their landlord's primary family home and shares domestic facilities—is generally not covered by the Residential Tenancies Act (RTA) unless both parties explicitly contract-in to the legislation in writing. Consequently, boarders do not have access to the Tenancy Tribunal for dispute resolution; their rights are governed entirely by their private boarding contract. Notice periods for ending the arrangement, rent adjustments, and house rules depend on the mutual terms established when moving into the property.
