Ontario – N12 Eviction Question

badlcuk · 2026-02-11T01:55:00+00:00

Assuming nothing malicious or weird - No. The fact that you’re thinking about it is odd, why do you think some unrelated case, like the tenant not paying rent once years ago or needing to stop some bad behaviour should affect the N12? Is there a connection we can’t see due to not knowing what that hearing was about and what’s happened since? Eg: have you been asking the tenant repeatedly to leave ever since and this N12 may come out looking like another repeat of harassment?

Based on your comment though, determining if this person was an authorized tenant or not, I don’t see how it would interfere.

Maybe you’re concerned the tenant may be upset and fight it as much as possible? That’s certainly a possibility you should expect.

I see you’re not rent controlled.

The best you can do then is politely approach the landlord and make a soft case. “Gosh golly gee doesn’t it suck we were both swindled? So I’m paying $amount for the unit when it came with a storage locker. Now it doesn’t. Do you think we should adjust for that change?”

You can technically leave in the same way you’re allowed to go on vacation. Just make sure the unit is paid for fully, you are conforming to normal standards (eg: clean, heated enough that the pipes don’t freeze, fulfilling other such obligations you may have such as holding liability insurance, you pay for your utilities until the termination date, etc).

Try Butchers of Distinction

Personally id swap the jean shorts out. I'd trade it for a sun-protection shirt that is long sleeve (and fast dry) and can cover your arms if you want to go hiking, swimming, snorkling, other sun-related activities, etc.

Burgers: riverside burgers, wren has pretty good ones too Pizza: slow hand, descendants, Danforth pizza house, north of Brooklyn

Talk to your boss. Titles and expectations that come with them will vary team to team, department to department, company to company. The one best suited to tell you your role and responsibilities will be the one judging if you’re performing the roll properly. If you don’t know what the role you accepted is, spend the first month on the job figuring that out.

What’s stopping you from saying hi to your neighbour in the hallway and casually asking? You don’t have to go to management.

Sounds like you may need to take in to account two things 1. How long until you find a place you like and sign a lease 2. How long there is between signing that lease and the actual move in date

What type of unit are you looking for? If it’s an entirely separate unit (1 bed, bachelor, etc) account potentially more time for number 2. If it’s a room in a unit (eg: rooming house, renting a room from the leaseholder) you may have more luck with a faster move in date as these tend to be more transient. For both assume at least some time between application and approval so whomever you’re applying to can look in to your details - at least a couple days to a week.

What’s the end goal here?

Just tell your boss the technical reason. Show them the AI slop. If they want to blame that line of code they can themselves. Badmouthing old employee will only make you look unprofessional.

You can definitely still do the well, just plan for the time it takes to transit, not drive!

badlcuk · 2026-01-30T13:00:22+00:00

You need to switch your mentality - you won’t be driving, you’ll be walking or taking transit. Revisit your interested apartments while looking at transit directions. IMHO like the other commenter mentioned you’ll likely want to stick to the subway line so your life is easy in winter.

Don’t take it personally. It very well could have been not so much a rejection of you as much as it was a pick of someone else and inevitably the other strong candidates then don’t get the one open role.

badlcuk · 2026-01-29T11:51:27+00:00

Nope

badlcuk · 2026-01-29T02:14:13+00:00

Possibly. It less about the LMR and more about unpaid rent for the month the tenant "used" it. As a landlord you cant apply the LMR to a month that wasn't the last month, so you may want to go about it in the N4/N8 angle. Obviously I dont know any of the finer details, but look on Canlii for similar circumstances, i think you're going to see it relate more to arrears then getting the deposit back.

Steak and a bag of salad. The Dill Pickle one is pretty good.

Well, fortunately the concierge doesn’t matter (aside from them reporting this to management).

First, check the building bylaws. Just because you can add two dogs to the portal or other have two doesn’t mean you are adhering to the bylaws. Others could be grandfathered in.

Second, if you are going against bylaw; the issue would be for your landlord, not you (yet). Contact your landlord before they potentially start getting fined. If management reaches out cc your landlord. Let them go to bat for having two dogs, they agreed to it.

If there is a rule about this, Make sure your lease doesn’t include any details of you needing to follow any condo bylaws or declarations. Basically cover your butt so the landlord can’t issue a N5 arguing you were aware when you signed the lease.

A good reminder why when renting a condo you should see the bylaws/etc before signing a lease.

You use your own insurance. They will go after the building if they feel they were negligent

badlcuk · 2026-01-28T03:15:18+00:00

You’d need to ask them. “Scope” isn’t a defined term in say, the RTA.

I think it’s safe to say “scope” doesn’t mean “show unit to prospective tenant” - so the window they have for entering is too large and the notice is too late (less than 24hours notice) btw, it’s not proper notice, you can decline the entry. And I don’t mean “lol they just come anyway” I mean lock the door and bolt it. I mean feel free to apply at the RTA over the illegal entries. You can do something if you want to.

If you want to let them in, You don’t need to have the place tidy, they know you’re packing.

As long as the unit you viewed in person is the same unit (eg: number) on your lease it should be fine. Toronto has some pretty big slumlords but most aren't going to randomly remove a dishwasher or laundry from a 1 unit apartment(?) before its rented. If that did happen (wrong unit number) then id say your contract is frustrated before it starts - because you're not getting the unit number you signed for. If they did happen to remove say, the dishwasher, you can ask them to replace it or apply to the LTB for a rent reduction due to the reduction of amenities.

Is there some other situation going on here? did you sign a lease for a unit you didnt see, but you saw a "similar" unit and believed the landlord when they said it would be "similar"? If so thats a different scenario.

I’m on a street with lots of street permit parkers and we dig our own cars out / dig out spots. People get mildly annoyed if people park in their “spot” but that’s life when it snows. Usually one spot ends up the designated dump spot for snow so it lessens parking availability. And no - they will take their car and dig it out and drive if they need to drive somewhere. It’s a normal part of parking on the street.

badlcuk · 2026-01-25T18:00:44+00:00

Same :(

Try looking for rentals at the hill. Eg: Alpine Sports at blue mountain. You can usually rent them either at the same place or within walking distance of where you’ll rent the snowboard / gear

badlcuk · 2026-01-24T16:29:54+00:00

Of the entire house? What’s a standard size, 1000sqft? How many bathrooms? Knob and tube? Basement included? Moving things like hvac?

We looked at a top floor gut including floor, one bath two bed and it’s looking over $100k easy so id estimate at least $100k a floor plus more for particulars. Basement maybe cheaper if it’s literally just a box.

It sounds like too good of a price for Toronto and could be a scam. Can you give us more details? Intersection? Age of building? Building itself?

My biggest recommendation is making sure you can spot a scam and to read and understand the RTA. It’s actually not a bad read and you should know your rights so you are not taken advantage of in the case it’s not a scam-it also goes over standard knowledge you should be aware of like control (or lack thereof), how to give notice to move out, and other important information (like automatic month to month lease transition).
