What happened

Tenants applied for an order determining that the Landlord gave a notice of termination in bad faith. The Landlord served the Tenants an N12 notice claiming the Purchaser required vacant possession for residential occupation. However, the Tenants alleged the unit was listed for rent shortly after they vacated, indicating the Purchaser did not move in.

The ruling

The Tenant proved the Landlord served an N12 notice in bad faith, as the Purchaser did not move into the unit and instead listed it for rent shortly after the Tenants vacated. The Purchaser must pay the Tenant $3,405.70 for rent differential and moving expenses.
