Between: L.G. Landlord
PAULA REBECCA CARSON
Apr 2 2026
And S.
K. W. Tenant
SUZANNE W.
L.G. (LG) and PAULA REBECCA CARSON (the 'Landlord') applied for an order to
terminate the tenancy and evict K. W. and SUZANNE W. (the 'Tenant')
because:
• the Landlord in good faith requires possession of the rental unit for the purpose of
residential occupation for at least one year.
The Landlord also claimed compensation for each day the Tenant remained in the unit after the
termination date.
This application was heard by videoconference on April 1, 2026.
The Landlords, the Landlords’ Representative, Ravis Mohebbian and the Tenant attended the
hearing.
Determinations:
1. As explained below, the Landlord has proven on a balance of probabilities the grounds for
termination of the tenancy. Therefore, the tenancy is terminated on or before April 30,
2026.
2. The Tenant was in possession of the rental unit on the date the application was filed.
N12 Notice of Termination
Order Page 1 of 3
File Number: LTB-L-004510-26
On January 9, 2026, the Landlord gave the Tenant an N12 notice of termination with the
termination date of April 14, 2026. The Landlord claims that they require vacant
possession of the rental unit for the purpose of residential occupation for their own use.
3. I find the Landlord in good faith requires possession of the rental unit for the purpose of
their own residential occupation for a period of at least one year because there was no
evidence to the contrary. The Landlord, LG testified they purchased the residential
complex in September 2025 and the predecessor landlord, on their behalf, issued the
Tenant an N12 notice of termination with a termination date of December 14, 2025 which
is not disputed. This coincided with closing of the purchase and sale agreement on
December 15, 2025. Since the Tenant did not vacate in accordance with that first N12
notice, after the purchase and sale agreement closed, the purchaser, now the Landlord,
issued the Tenant another N12 notice of termination which is subject to this application.
The Landlord testified they purchased the property for their own use and their intentions to
occupy the residential complex for residential occupation has not changed. The Landlords’
plan to occupy the residential complex throughout this period and despite delays remains
consistent.
4. It’s also evident by the Landlord’s actions after the purchase and sale agreement closed.
For example, the residential complex at the time of purchase contained 4 rental units. The
Landlord testified he’s renovated and eliminated the kitchens in the basement, first and
second floor units to make it a single unit and the Tenant’s unit is intended to be part of
that single unit dwelling. They also stated they have no intentions to rent out the Tenant’s
unit or any part of the house.
5. Based on the evidence before me, I am satisfied the Landlords require the rental unit for
their own residential occupation as a part of their long-term family home where they can
raise their family. There were no inconsistency or contradictions in the Landlords’
evidence. The Tenant attempted to rebut the Landlord’s evidence but the Tenant did not
show that the Landlord’s evidence was unreliable, inconsistent or contradictive and there
was no reasons or examples provided by the Tenant that would demonstrate or support
that the Landlords intentions was not truthful.
6. The Landlord has compensated the Tenant an amount equal to one month's rent by April
14, 2026.
Section 83:
7. I have considered all of the disclosed circumstances in accordance with subsection 83(2)
of the Residential Tenancies Act, 2006 (the 'Act'), and find that it would not be unfair to
postpone the eviction until April 30, 2026 pursuant to subsection 83(1)(b) of the Act.
8. The Tenant does not want to move for financial reasons and location. The Tenant had
seven months since first N12 Notice was issued to find alternate accommodations, to allow
an extended termination date as requested by the Tenant to October 2026, is not
reasonable. The Tenant lives alone and has disabilities, therefore the termination date is
extended slightly to April 30, 2026, to allow the Tenant a few more weeks to pack and find
alternate accommodations. There’s little to no prejudice to the Landlords since they have
housing with their parents in Markham.
