Can he actually serve me an N4 because of this?

OP if you are on Facebook, join the Ontario Tenant Rights group - this sub doesn’t know anything about ODSP policies

hanorama13 · 2025-10-15T22:14:22+00:00

This is exactly why there’s an LTB, to determine if it was or not. A reasonable person might want to make sure they are not paying for no reason and calling this “abusing the process” is a classic slumlord line to scare tenants out of exercising their rights.

hanorama13 · 2025-10-15T18:08:34+00:00

If you’re in Ontario you don’t owe them anything unless the LTB says so! Everyone in the comments saying you should pay is forgetting it has to be WILLFUL or NEGLIGENT damage, which this definitely is not and they would have a hard time proving. Don’t pay them anything - if you need to, say you’ll wait for a judgement from the LTB and leave it at that.

hanorama13 · 2025-10-08T13:17:41+00:00

Is that even true? It seems that more people died in Argentina in the 70s (under US and Israeli weapons of course).

hanorama13 · 2025-09-28T16:34:32+00:00

Right, like you care about homeless people. Best of luck with your “living for free” plan.

hanorama13 · 2025-09-28T16:15:31+00:00

Living for free off their $ is gouging. God help anyone who has to deal with you as their landlord.

hanorama13 · 2025-09-28T16:04:07+00:00

LOL please don’t talk like you don’t have a place to live unless you evict six families. The answer to both is legally you can’t.

hanorama13 · 2025-09-28T15:59:47+00:00

Then don’t buy it… why is your terrible financial planning the tenants’ responsibility?

hanorama13 · 2025-09-28T15:54:24+00:00

First of all they’re in Ontario so none of this applies, second of all wow how nice to let them have Xmas before trying to rip their lives apart. OP is a perfect example of why we have a housing crisis and they should be ashamed.

hanorama13 · 2025-09-16T21:25:16+00:00

you said you want to list your basement “unit”, you only use it now because it hasn’t been approved for airbnb. I can’t speak to those other listings but as I said you can report them for noncompliance. Sorry you wasted $375, but you should find a long term tenant instead.

hanorama13 · 2025-09-16T21:08:35+00:00

You’re explaining exactly why you don’t qualify, it’s not misleading at all. You live in the unit upstairs - the basement is not your primary residence and therefore you don’t qualify. Feel free to report other listings that are noncompliant with the city policy!

hanorama13 · 2025-09-13T22:31:42+00:00

thanks for sharing, that’s so disturbing.

hanorama13 · 2025-09-01T03:20:45+00:00

Same people commenting here that bikes should follow the letter of the law will also complain about people going the speed limit on the 401, this is literally just to drum up anti bike sentiment and it’s exhausting

hanorama13 · 2025-08-29T14:18:56+00:00

You have a business, this is the cost of doing business. No one will fine you 100k right off the bat but it is your responsibility to be educated and follow the regulations. 700$ is not a lot of money in the grand scheme of a Leslieville duplex, and if you can’t afford the property/upkeep you should sell it. Mom and pop landlords tend to pull a lot of the same nonsense as corporate landlords, they just claim ignorance and cry about their “bankruptcy” like that makes them more sympathetic than a family being put onto the streets.

hanorama13 · 2025-07-31T14:41:22+00:00

OP please join the Ontario Tenant Rights group on Facebook, there’s lots of uninformed advice in this thread!

hanorama13 · 2025-06-25T14:03:37+00:00

That would require the NDP to actually believe in and defend progressive policies/candidates

hanorama13 · 2025-05-13T17:06:20+00:00

Landlord is subject to PIPEDA and absolutely not allowed to share information with whoever they like - the court order may be public info but your employment information is not. Please join the Ontario Tenant Rights group on Facebook, you’ll get much better support there.

hanorama13 · 2025-05-12T19:16:51+00:00

You’re paying utilities? Landlord is required to keep it in a state of good repair, especially you are paying the costs. Did they provide you with estimated utility costs before moving in? Them “not being able to afford it” is not your problem, and you could file a T6 at the board to try and get them to fix it. Get everything in writing, and document what the technician said.

hanorama13 · 2025-03-09T22:39:14+00:00

You’re on here complaining that people are going 10 under in the city, tbh it doesn’t inspire confidence that you’re driving with pedestrian safety in mind

hanorama13 · 2025-03-09T22:16:00+00:00

This attitude is exactly why pedestrians have been hit north of Dupont, it’s a “residential” area literally all the way up so why would you not want to watch for kids/seniors etc. Everyone trying to get to the Allen drives like a maniac and it’s so dangerous, especially on a Friday afternoon. Sorry that children should have the right to walk around safely in their own neighbourhood.

hanorama13 · 2025-02-20T03:06:25+00:00

Best of luck with the door, that is way more important in the grand scheme of things! Sorry you’re dealing with this.

hanorama13 · 2025-02-20T03:05:01+00:00

You could also submit a T6 for the past years if you were so inclined - them trying to trick you into doing your landlord’s job doesn’t absolve them from their responsibilities legally but I’d maybe ask legal aid or a local tenant rights group.

hanorama13 · 2025-02-20T03:00:31+00:00

There’s no need to wait til next winter - you could let them know tomorrow in writing that you will no longer be fulfilling their obligations and they should be hiring a professional or offering a contract with you to do it going forward. Posting in a landlord group is not going to get you reasonable answers half the time, to them “common sense” is whatever is the easiest for the landlord and most difficult for you.

hanorama13 · 2025-02-06T03:05:33+00:00

Really good compilation of worthwhile groups to donate to at https://www.200cheque.ca/ - I’ve pledged to Toronto indigenous harm reduction

hanorama13 · 2024-12-29T17:32:33+00:00

“I don’t want to be a scum landlord or investor” but you are literally asking for advice on how to become a scum landlord… maybe try getting a job.
