Landlord says his tenants stopped paying rent months ago. But he’s in limbo until case is heard

The tenants dispute their landlord’s claims

The tenants did not want to go on record with CBC News, but they said they disagree with the claims being made against them.

Delays stressing out landlord

Portman says he rented the Walkerville property before buying it and the adjoining home in 2014.

The current tenants, a family of three, moved into one side of the duplex in December 2021.

According to Portman, the tenants have never paid the $1,800 monthly rent on time, which has forced him to repeatedly notify them that their rent is late. The rent would cover the mortgage for the entire property, according to Portman.

    Judging on the morning show which I hear while 10-60% awake, they are making improvements on this.

    I honestly think there was some sort of staffing change that has led to a less steady stream of these asshats. It was weekly or more for a while there.

    I only hear a story about how hard it is to evict “nightmare tenants” every few weeks now. Last one, a week or two ago, was complaining about how the Ford govt fired all the “expert adjudicators” and I guess how a Lib govt would bring em all back. I was too sleepy to determine why it was news.
