What happened

Landlords applied for an order to terminate the tenancy and evict the Tenant for personal use, claiming they require possession of the rental unit for residential occupation for at least one year. The application was dismissed after the Board found the Landlords did not prove good faith intention to occupy the unit.

The ruling

The Landlords' application for eviction was dismissed. The Board found that the Landlords did not demonstrate a genuine intention to occupy the unit as a primary residence and that eviction would significantly impact the vulnerable Tenant.
