If a Tenant does not give notice that he or she is leaving, but the Landlord believes the Tenant left the rental unit, the Landlord should make a reasonable effort to contact the Tenant to determine whether the Tenant has left. If the Landlord is unable to reach the tenant the Landlord should apply to the Board for an order ending the tenancy.
As a landlord, discovering that your rental unit is vacant without receiving formal notice from the tenant can be a challenging situation. Uncertainty may surround the reasons for their departure, leaving you wondering about the next steps to take. In this blog, we’ll delve into what landlords should do when faced with such a scenario, ensuring a fair and responsible approach.

My husband and I hired George Brown for a landlord and tenant dispute. Since the moment we hired him, he immediately lifted a huge weight off of our shoulders. George made us feel confident in the process and he was reassuring every step of the way! We had to do very little in regards to the process as George handled everything in a timely manner. The best news..we won our case! Would definitley hire him again in the future, if required.
