N12 Notice — Personal Use
One error on your N12 voids the notice — we get it right the first time
An N12 Notice to End a Tenancy is served when a landlord, their family member, or a purchaser requires the rental unit for personal use. The notice must state the correct termination date — at least 60 days from service, landing on the last day of a rental period — and the landlord must pay the tenant compensation equal to one month’s rent on or before that date. A single error — wrong date, missing compensation, or an incorrect designation — voids the notice entirely and resets your timeline.

Stonegate prepares and serves N12 notices for landlords across Ontario every week. We know what adjudicators look for, what mistakes void the notice, and how to file the L2 application that follows so nothing delays your hearing date.

Frequently Asked Questions
N12 Personal Use Questions
Do you handle N12 notices for landlords across Ontario?
Yes. We file LTB applications for Ontario properties regularly. Toronto cases go through the LTB regional office, and we file there routinely.
What is your fee structure?
We charge flat fees, quoted upfront before you sign. The fee covers the notice, filing, and hearing representation for your matter type.
Do you represent tenants?
No. We are a landlord-only firm. We never represent tenants, which means our advice is never diluted by conflicts of interest.
How long does an N12/L2 matter take in Ontario?
Timelines vary by application type. Non-payment N4/L1 matters tend to move faster than conduct or own-use applications. We’ll give you realistic timelines when we review your file.
Can I book a free consultation?
Yes. We offer a free 20-minute call to review your situation and tell you whether we can help. Use the button below to book.
