What happened

The Landlord applied for eviction for personal use (N12), stating the basement was needed as living and play space for her growing family, including children and grandchildren living in the upper unit. The Tenant contested the application, alleging bad faith due to a prior illegal rent increase request and a parking dispute.

The ruling

The LTB granted the Landlord's application to terminate the tenancy for personal use. The Member found the Landlord sincerely intends to use the basement as additional space for grandchildren. The tenancy is ordered to terminate on August 31, 2025. The Landlord's claim for daily compensation was dismissed.
