Complete the Ontario standard lease without retyping your contact details

Ontario's mandatory standard residential lease asks for the landlord's and tenant's name, address, and contact details alongside the rental unit information. This guide is an example of storing the repeating identity fields in hivi.

Official form and source

Start from the official Ontario source and always use the current version — the standard lease template may be updated:

• Service page: Guide to Ontario's standard lease — ontario.ca

What this form is about

Ontario's Standard Form of Lease is mandatory for most private residential tenancies. It collects landlord and tenant contact details, the rental unit address, rent details, and any additional terms agreed by both parties.

Before you start: what to gather

• Your name, address, and contact details (as landlord or tenant).
• The rental unit address.
• Rent amount, tenancy start date, and any additional negotiated terms.

Confirm whether the standard lease applies to your tenancy type on ontario.ca.

How hivi makes it faster

1. Store your contact details once. Save your name, address, and contact information in hivi.
2. Autofill the landlord or tenant identity fields. Use the hivi Chrome extension on any online portal, or fill a PDF of the standard lease from your saved profile inside hivi.
3. Complete the rental unit and term details yourself — rent amount, start date, and additional provisions.
4. Both parties review and sign.

Why do it in hivi

Your contact details repeat on the lease, any amendments, and LTB applications related to the tenancy. Stored once in hivi — in Canada, with self-hosted AI — each tenancy document starts mostly filled.
