Zahid Mahmood,

Zahid Mahmood is a landlord who bought a house in Oshawa, Ontario in 2021. He hoped that the rental income would help him and his wife save money for post-secondary education for their three children. In 2022, Mahmood faced a difficult situation when former tenants left piles of trash, bottles of urine, rodents and dog feces in the house they had rented. The tenants stopped paying rent and Mahmood had to continue paying the mortgage. He gave the tenants an N4 eviction notice and filed an application with the Landlord and Tenant Board (LTB) to end the tenancy due to non-payment of rent. After waiting months for a hearing, the LTB issued an order in Mahmood's favor, terminating the tenancy. The total unpaid rent owing exceeded $24,000. Mahmood is among a group of landlords calling for changes to provincial rules to make it simpler and faster to evict tenants in cases of non-payment of rent. However, tenant advocates say changing the rules could make it easier for bad landlords to exploit the system and illegally evict tenants.
