Determine the correct route
RTB-29 concerns eligible demolition or conversion, while renovations and repairs usually require a separate RTB process. Check permits, first-refusal arrangements, compensation and tenant notification.
Forms and documents to consider
Before applying, responding or serving
- Check jurisdiction and the precise document version, number and legal purpose.
- Write down what happened and when. Keep your rental agreement, notices, payment records and messages.
- Check the official notice and RTB instructions for how to deliver it, when it counts as received, and the deadline.
- Do not assume a form makes you eligible for the remedy or that an application automatically stays another order.
Critical distinction
Do not use a four-month demolition/conversion form as a shortcut to vacant possession for renovation work.
