What happened

The Landlord applied for an order to terminate the tenancy for personal use, specifically for the residential occupation of her daughter and her daughter's new husband. The Tenant contested the application, alleging that the Landlord was retaliating because the Tenant had recently voided an eviction order for non-payment of rent by paying $18,000 in arrears. The Board found the Landlord acted in good faith due to severe overcrowding in the Landlord's current residence.

The ruling

The tenancy is terminated effective October 31, 2025, provided the Landlord pays the Tenant $2,000.00 in mandatory compensation by August 7, 2025. The Board granted a delay in eviction to allow the Tenant, who has three young children, more time to find housing. If the Landlord fails to pay the compensation, the tenancy will not be terminated.
