Does GST/HST apply for rental income for a single detached home?

I purchased a house in 2014 and have rented it out for 7 months but have not charged GST/HST. I believe it is exempt… can someone confirm?

Residential rent is not taxable for GST.  You do not collect GST nor do you claim it back.  All of your expenses will have the GST included.
