QUOTE (Mpowered1 @ Mar 4 2010, 07:07 AM) We are looking to get an eviction order for non payment of rent. We have a date for a hearing with the board. This is in Ontario. Just like to get some thoughts on what to expect and any tips that others may have to help get the the decision in our favour. Tenant is going on 3 months not paying rent, one with the former landlord and two with us. Thanks in advance.
Make sure, sure, sure you understand the process.
Call the LTB and talk to them on the phone. Their customer support is great, in my experience, and they will educate you on the phone what the proper steps to take are.
make sure you`ve taken the proper steps, served the right notices and waited the correct amount of time for every step in the process.
As long as you follow the process to the tee you will be OK.
Don`t get emotional about it. It`s just business. Do it right and you will prevail.
Many will disagree with the following, but you may offer them $500 to get out in 24 hrs, pay them after they move out. Again, it`s only business. it will be much cheaper and quicker.
Good luck,
