Tenant Not Paying Rent
Your tenant stopped paying — we file the notice, the application, and represent you at the LTB
When a tenant stops paying rent, the clock starts the moment you serve a valid N4 notice. That notice must state the exact amount owing, the correct termination date, and be served properly under the Residential Tenancies Act. Get any of that wrong and the notice is void — you start over. Most landlords who come to us have already lost weeks trying to handle it themselves.
Stonegate handles non-payment files for Ontario landlords every week. We prepare and serve the N4 notice, file the L1 application to terminate the tenancy and recover the arrears, and represent you at the LTB hearing. Flat fee. No surprises.
Learn about the N4 Notice — the first step in the eviction process for non-payment of rent. See How It Works to understand what Stonegate does from first call to final order.

Frequently Asked Questions
Tenant Not Paying Rent — Questions
Do you handle non-payment files 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 a non-payment eviction 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.
