The Importance of Accuracy

Small errors on LTB forms can lead to months of lost revenue if a notice is found to be void. The N1 is the most common form landlords get wrong.

Step 1: Check the Dates

The notice period is exactly 90 days. We recommend adding a few 'buffer days' to account for mailing time to ensure you meet the legal requirement.

Step 2: Accurate Legal Names

Ensure the names on the notice match the names on the original lease exactly.
