Unlike most other parts of Canada, in New Brunswick the end of a fixed term is a valid reason for terminating the tenancy, and termination at the end of the lease term does not require notice to terminate the lease on the expiry date. A month-to-month tenancy requires 1 month's notice. A year-to-year tenancy requires notice of 3 months prior to the anniversary date of the tenancy. If a landlord wants to terminate a long-term tenancy (5 years or more), a reason is required, such as: major renovations, family member moving in, change of building use to commercial or recreational instead of residential. A landlord may also terminate for cause, such as: unpaid rent, safety concerns, disruptive conduct, damage to the property.
How can a landlord evict a tenant?
The landlord may request an Eviction Order for the following reasons:
If a tenant fails to leave on the date set in a Notice to Vacate issued for non-payment of rent.
If a tenant fails to leave on the date set in a Notice to Quit issued by a Rentalsman for breach of lease.
If a tenant fails to leave at the end of a lease term or on the date given by one of the parties in a proper Notice to Terminate served in a periodic tenancy.
