L1 application help for Thornhill landlords
Thornhill landlords may deal with unpaid rent in condominiums, basement apartments, townhouses, and detached homes. These files often involve electronic payments, parking or locker terms, shared utility questions, or a tenant who makes partial payments after an N4 is served.
An L1 Application for non-payment of rent normally follows an N4 notice. The notice should identify the tenant and unit, list rent arrears only, use the correct termination date, and be served properly. The L1 should not be filed until after the termination date has passed.
The ledger should show rent due, payments received, dates, and balance. If payments came after the N4, the current amount should be updated. If building or repair complaints are likely, the landlord should gather the documents needed to respond without turning the L1 into a general dispute.
Preparing the Thornhill file
The hearing package should include the N4, Certificate of Service, lease, ledger, payment proof, messages, and repair or building records if relevant. Other issues such as damage, interference, or non-rent charges may need another Core LTB Applications strategy.
