Frequently Asked Questions
What is the R-400 bylaw?
The R-400 bylaw requires all residential rental properties in Halifax Regional Municipality to be registered with the city and maintain proper documentation including an M-200 maintenance plan.
What happens if I don’t have an M-200 maintenance plan?
By-law R-400 (section 8) requires owners of rental housing to keep a current maintenance plan. Breaching R-400 can bring fines of $150 to $10,000 per offence (section 10). This is general information, not legal advice.
Is this scan really free?
Yes, completely free. No credit card and no account — we only ask for your first name and email so we can follow up on your results.
How accurate is the risk score?
The score is a directional estimate based only on your answers about by-laws R-400 and M-200. It is not an inspection and not a prediction of fines — for a full picture, have the property inspected.
