What happened

Tenants applied for an order to determine whether the Residential Tenancies Act, 2006 applies to their tenancy. The landlord purchased the property in May 2023 and claimed the tenants were occupying the unit on the previous owner's 'good will', not as tenants. The tenants argued there was an implied tenancy agreement with the previous owner.

The ruling

The Residential Tenancies Act, 2006 applies to the tenancy between Brandon Lovett and 60 Victoria St.(Alliston) Inc. Danielle D'Angelo is not a party to the tenancy agreement.
