Therefore, the RTB cannot pick up on a landlord who is not registered with it but may be paying tax.

My final question is a blunt question but goes back to my earlier question about how long it takes to resolve disputes. If a tenant stops paying rent today and the landlord makes a complaint to the RTB, what is the estimated timeframe for dealing with that and getting the house back for the landlord? These are the complaints landlords make about delays in resolving disputes. If a complaint of that nature presents to the RTB today, how long would it take to reach a conclusion?
