What is Form N7?

Form N7 is a legal document that landlords in Canada use to terminate a tenancy when a tenant has caused serious issues in the rental unit or complex. This can involve actions that jeopardize safety, deliberate damage to the property, or causing significant harm through misuse. The form requires landlords to provide specific information about the tenant, the rental unit, and the incidents leading to the notice. Proper use of this form is essential for landlords to ensure the notice is valid and to follow the correct procedures for eviction through the Landlord Tenant Board.

What is Form N7 used for?

Form N7 is a critical document for landlords in Ontario. It is used to terminate a tenancy early due to serious issues caused by the tenant:

  • Willful Damage: Intentional harm to the rental unit or property.
  • Illegal Activity: Actions that threaten safety or break Ontario law, like drug-related activities or weapon possession.
  • Serious Interference: Conduct that endangers others or causes major damage to the property or complex.
