Brockville is a city of approximately 22,000 residents on the St. Lawrence River in Eastern Ontario, situated in the heart of the 1000 Islands region. Known as the "City of the 1000 Islands," Brockville's economy is driven by tourism, healthcare (Brockville General Hospital), government services, and light manufacturing. The city's historic architecture, waterfront location, and proximity to both Ottawa and Kingston make it an attractive but modest-sized rental market. For Brockville landlords, the relatively small scale of the market means that a single problem tenant can have an outsized impact on your rental income. Our team provides professional, efficient eviction services designed for the realities of small-city Eastern Ontario.

Get Started TodayBrockville sits midway between Ottawa and Kingston along the Highway 401 corridor, making it accessible to both major centres while maintaining its small-city character. The rental market here is compact but active, driven by healthcare workers at Brockville General Hospital, government employees, tourism and hospitality workers, and retirees drawn to the waterfront lifestyle.
The 1000 Islands tourism industry is a significant economic driver, bringing seasonal employment that peaks from May to October. Workers in hotels, restaurants, tour companies, and marina operations may need seasonal housing, and some landlords rent to seasonal workers during the tourism months. These arrangements can create complications under the RTA if not structured properly.
Brockville's housing stock includes beautifully preserved Victorian and Edwardian homes along King Street and the downtown core, many of which have been converted into multi-unit rentals. These older properties carry aesthetic charm but also require ongoing maintenance and capital improvements. Landlords with historic properties face a balance between preservation costs and rental income.
The city has also seen some newer residential development, particularly on its north side, attracting families and commuters. However, the overall housing supply remains limited, which has kept vacancy rates relatively low and rents stable to rising. Average one-bedroom rents in Brockville range from $1,100 to $1,400 per month, with two-bedrooms at $1,300 to $1,600.
For Brockville landlords, the small market size means that reputation and community relationships matter more than in larger cities. However, this should not deter you from pursuing legitimate eviction when a tenant stops paying or causes problems. The LTB process is designed to protect both parties, and having professional representation ensures your rights are enforced while following the proper legal procedures.
Evictions in Brockville typically take 3 to 5 months from the initial notice to sheriff enforcement. Brockville falls within the Eastern Ontario LTB region, where hearing wait times average 2 to 3 months. Smaller caseloads compared to the GTA can mean somewhat faster scheduling.
Brockville eviction cases are processed through the Eastern Ontario regional LTB office. Most hearings are conducted virtually, eliminating the need for Brockville landlords to travel. Our team handles all scheduling, digital evidence preparation, and hearing representation.
The LTB filing fee is $201 for most eviction applications. Total costs including professional representation in Brockville typically range from $1,500 to $3,000. Our competitive flat fees are calibrated for the Brockville market, giving landlords transparent, predictable costs.
Yes. Brockville's position in the 1000 Islands region means tourism and hospitality are significant employers. Seasonal employment patterns can affect tenant income stability, particularly during winter months when tourism slows. Landlords should be prepared for potential non-payment during off-season periods and act quickly with N4 notices when rent falls behind.
If a waterfront property in Brockville is rented as a tenant's primary residence under a lease agreement, the Residential Tenancies Act applies. However, seasonal vacation rentals or cottage rentals that are not the tenant's primary residence may be exempt. The distinction depends on the specific arrangement. We help Brockville landlords determine whether their waterfront property falls under the RTA before pursuing eviction.
