What happened

Tenants applied for an order determining that the Landlord gave a notice of termination in bad faith. The Landlord claimed her daughter required the rental unit for personal use, but the Tenants proved the Landlord did not actually move her daughter into the unit after they vacated.

The ruling

The Landlord served a verbal N12 notice in bad faith, as the Landlord's daughter did not actually move into the rental unit after the Tenants vacated. The Landlord must pay the Tenants $12,103.70, including one month's rent compensation, rent differential for 12 months, and moving expenses. The Landlord must also pay a $500 administrative fine to the LTB.
