Rights & LegalAn N13 renoviction runs on paper, and from September 21, 2026 there's more of it: Bill 97 amends the RTA's right-of-first-refusal rules, adding written-notification duties for landlords once a tenant has preserved the right — including keeping the tenant updated when the completion date slips, which it usually does. Th
Rights & LegalThree Ontario cities now license renovation evictions, and a pattern has emerged: all three give landlords seven days from the N13 to apply, and almost everything else differs — Hamilton charges $715 per unit with annual renewals, Toronto $700 with compensation proven before approval, and Ottawa (from January 1, 2027)
Rights & LegalOttawa city council passed its Rental Renovation Licence bylaw 21–5 on July 15, 2026, and it takes effect January 1, 2027: a municipal licence within 7 days of issuing an N13, a building permit secured before the notice goes out, and a city-produced tenant rights guide served alongside it. Here's what the bylaw actuall
Rights & LegalNot every tenancy has to end at the Landlord and Tenant Board. Ontario law gives landlords and tenants several legal ways to part company without an eviction hearing — the N11 mutual agreement and cash-for-keys deal, the tenant's own N9 notice, assignment, and negotiated moves — each faster than the queue when done rig
Rights & LegalThe landlord said they needed the unit for family. You moved out. A week later it was on the market at $500 more. Ontario law presumes what that looks like: an own-use eviction followed by re-listing within 12 months is presumed bad faith — and suddenly the landlord must prove innocence. Here's the T5 application from
Rights & LegalKey deposits. Pet fees. An unreturned last month's rent. Interest nobody ever paid. N12 compensation that never arrived. Ontario law makes all of it recoverable — through one application with eight grounds and a filing fee under $60. But the T1 runs on a strict one-year lookback, and unchallenged rent increases become
Rights & LegalThe tenant handed you an N9 — or signed an N11 — and then simply stayed. The L3 converts their own paperwork into an eviction order, often without a hearing. But it runs on a 30-day fuse that voids the notice entirely, and an affidavit with five required elements the LTB will refuse the file over. Here's the complete w
Rights & LegalOntario's renoviction rules now run on paperwork: a qualified professional's report, building permits, written timeline estimates, update obligations, a completion notice, and a 60-day window for the tenant to come back. Here's the full document trail — what landlords must produce, what tenants can demand, and where mu
Rights & LegalBill 60 gives Ontario landlords a new choice on own-use evictions: serve the N12 the fast way and pay a month's compensation, or give at least 120 days' notice and pay nothing. On a $3,000 unit, that timing choice is worth $3,000. This guide breaks down exactly how the new 120-day path works under RTA s.48.1(2), when i
Rights & LegalIf your rental was first occupied after November 15, 2018, the annual guideline doesn't cap your rent increases — but using the N1 instead of the N2, skipping the 90-day notice, or failing to prove the exemption can void the increase entirely. Here's how the N2 actually works.
Rights & LegalYou moved out because your landlord "needed the unit" — then it went back on the market at a higher rent. That's a bad-faith eviction, and the T5 is how you fight back. This complete guide covers what counts as bad faith, the deadlines that split by reason (one year for an N12, up to two for an N13 renovation), the evi
Rights & LegalThe N13 is the notice an Ontario landlord uses to end a tenancy to demolish, convert, or do major repairs that need the unit empty. This guide walks through the three grounds, the 120-day notice rules, the compensation and right-to-return, and exactly how the process works — for both landlords serving one and tenants w
Rights & Legal"Renoviction" is when a landlord uses renovations to end a tenancy — sometimes legitimately, sometimes not. This complete guide explains how the N13 process actually works, the compensation and right-to-return rules, the new licensing crackdown under Bill 60/97, and how both landlords and tenants can stay on the right
