L1 application help for Scarborough landlords
Scarborough landlords often deal with unpaid rent in basement apartments, condominiums, townhouses, apartment units, and detached homes. Non-payment files may include cash payments, partial e-transfers, multiple occupants, or unit-description issues.
An L1 Application for non-payment of rent normally follows an N4 notice. The N4 should identify the tenant and rental unit, state rent arrears only, use the correct termination date, and be served properly.
The rent ledger should show rent charged, payments received, dates, and balance. Payments after the N4 need to be recorded because they may reduce the balance or affect the notice.
Preparing the Scarborough file
The hearing package should include the N4, Certificate of Service, lease, ledger, payment proof, and messages. If repairs or property-condition issues are raised, the landlord should prepare supporting records.
If other issues exist, they may need another Core LTB Applications strategy.
