NEW WESTMINSTER (NEWS 1130) (https://www.citynews1130.com/2019/01/22/single-father-son-evicted-toddler-noise/) – A single father has been left scrambling to find a new place to live after complaints about his two-year-old son causing too much noise led to an eviction notice last September.

A Residential Tenancy Branch arbitrator has given Matt Astifan 10 days to get out, after finding noise caused by both father and son was enough to uphold the eviction.

Astifan and his son, Marcus, moved into their Queensborough apartment in August 2017. The noise complaints about playing in the hall and the building’s lobby started in January 2018.

“I had a soft soccer ball. We would take it all the way to the end of the hallway and go downstairs and play … in the lobby. We did it a few times, and then we got a complaint through email from the manager,” Astifan told NEWS 1130.

He says he addressed the issue and apologized, but then more complaints started from two separate tenants of the apartment below his.

“The manager sends me … a breach notice for noise disturbance. I emailed them a detailed email … trying to showcase for them that I’m very willing to comply with their request and I asked them what they wanted me, specifically, to do to try to reduce the sound. His suggestion was to keep Marcus upstairs,” he said.

“I said ‘I can’t really do that. I’ve got to keep an eye on him. He’s two years old and he’s not going to be very happy if I lock him in a room upstairs.”

Astifan says he added a rug to his living room and re-arranged the furniture in an attempt to reduce the noise.

He said he used to feel he had a good relationship with his landlord.

“Prior to him sending the first breach notice, we were fine … he was very friendly,” he said. “It was after he sent the breach notice that I was definitely upset and the relationship turned turmoil.”

Astifan says he received another breach notice a couple of weeks later. That’s when he says he filed a dispute with the Residential Tenancy Branch, claiming he was being harassed and discriminated against.

The complaint was dismissed and Astifan said he was handed an eviction notice a couple of weeks later in September last year.

“I made another claim with the Residential Tenancy Branch. That was the hearing that we had on Jan. 15. We just got that result in. The arbitrator sided with the landlords to evict us,” he said.

In an audio recording of the arbitrator meeting, both Astifan and the landlord acknowledge he was offered a suite on the ground flood and two townhouses as alternative places to live. But he says he doesn’t want to give up his dream home.

“I live in a loft by the water. I live in, arguably, the best unit in the building. It took me six months to find the unit,” Astifan said, adding during the meeting he pays $2,865 a month rent.

“The last place I lived in, I lived there for like, a decade. I don’t move around a lot. Moving is a headache. It’s hard … If I wanted to move, I would just move into whatever’s available. Why would I only choose three options?”

He said he is shocked he was only given 10 days to leave the suite.

“I always assumed that if I lost the case, I would have 30 days’ notice … I figured the worst-case scenario would be Mar. 1, if I lost the case. But the arbitrator decided to give me 10 days because I’ve already paid my rent for the month of January. So, she gave me until Jan. 31 at 1 o’clock to get out.”

Astifan is worried about what this ruling could mean for other parents.

“This case would set precedence for other families,” he argued. “It would allow other managers to evict people over what you call ‘child noise disturbance.'”

He doesn’t believe there’s anything in the Residential Tenancy Act to keep a landlord from evicting somebody for the noise a child makes. “I think that is something that needs to be addressed, especially for toddlers or children between the ages of 0 to 5 … Imagine you’ve got a baby crying at night and you’ve got tenants complaining about the sound.”

“Marcus is two years old. Of course, he runs around the place. There’s only so much I can do to try to stop him and explain to him to keep it down. Of course, he will listen to me in that moment and he’ll go sit down. I usually suggest he do something else — like, ‘Why don’t you go colour? Why don’t you go watch a cartoon?’ — there’s only so much you can do. So, granted, there’s going to be some noise.”

“The agents testified that they are a multi-family complex and have at least 20 other families with up to four children in a unit, and they do not have the same problems as they have no issue with reasonable noise of children playing,” read the Residential Tenancy Branch ruling.

Astifan feels the arbitrator in his case wasn’t being fair. “During the actual call, the arbitrator started making suggestions to the witnesses, which are the tenants below, that the noise was about me making the noise and that I was purposely making noise — which was contrary to any communication prior to the call.”

He believes the arbitrator ruled against him on that premise.

“The case had always been about child noise disturbance,” he said.

Under the tenancy agreement, tenants have a right to peace, privacy and quiet enjoyment in their homes, according to the BC Residential Tenancy Branch (BCRTB).

“This may include the tenant’s right to have guests, play music at a reasonable level and to allow their children to play during acceptable hours,” BCRTB wrote in an email.

“This right to privacy and quiet enjoyment extends to all tenants in multi-unit buildings and tenants. Tenants must make sure they, their guests and their pets don’t unreasonably disturb other occupants. If there are disturbances like unreasonable noise, excessive second-hand smoke or harassment from a neighbouring tenant of the same landlord, the tenant are encouraged to ask their landlord’s help to address the issues.

BCRTB only receives data on notices of eviction when a tenant disputes the notice, so it does not know if other residents have been evicted over child noise before. A brief search of the branch’s previous decisions found a similar case in May, 2018 where the BCRTB ruled in favour of the landlord who evicted tenants because of noise caused, in part, by their two-year-old child.

Astifan said isn’t sure what he’s going to do, but he is considering an appeal to the Supreme Court.

“When I first got [the decision] I had this whole ‘screw it’ mentality. Why am I fighting this? It’s costing me so much energy. I’ll just leave,” he said. “But the reaction I’m getting from my friends … everyone’s saying, ‘You’ve got to fight this.'”

He said he has reached out to the Community Legal Assistance Society about whether to escalate the issue. In the meantime, he’s been keeping an eye out for a new place to live.

The landlords, Port Royal Village Developments were unavailable for an interview on the matter and Landlord BC declined to provide a comment to CityNews.

Buddy doesn't get any sympathy from me. Says he can find another place, but it's better to be a selfish bastard and screw up other peoples' enjoyment of their homes.

[320icar]

He pays $2900 a month for rent? Lives water front? Has the best unit in the building? Yeah I suddenly don’t feel as bad for him. He can find another roof over his head I’m sure

[GS8]

Facebook suggested I be friends with him because we have 3 mutual friends. I perused his page. He's your typical social media attention craving narcissist.

Considering he was given alternative suites as options, he still denied them because 'muh 5waG'.

What a cunt

[welfare]

Would be nice if they interviewed some of the complainants.
Hear their side of the story.

[SkunkWorks]

Dude sounds *exactly* like the type of asshole who'd have a kid that's stomping around and screaming everywhere and expect that others should just put up with it.

[68style]

Given that the government never sides with owners in disputes in B.C. and not only did they side with the owner but also reduced the tenant’s moveout time I’d say it’s pretty obvious he’s a compete and utter entitled douchebag.

[Badhobz]

But single dads though... I'd give him a break just because he's a single dad.

[SkinnyPupp]

He got breaks, read the article. He refused to take them because he valued having a nice apartment over his neighbours and kid. So he got booted out

[GabAlmighty]

He was given a few chances, and different living options.. Chose his social cred over just swallowing his pride and taking it on the chin.

[trollface]

What's the difference between this and a noisy dog? A noisy dog would have got the same treatment. Noise is noise.

Shut your kid up.

[Hondaracer]

These look like the lofts that line the river in queesnsborough, been in these buildings quite a few times. 4 story wood frame low rise for the most part so sound travels pretty well.

Having that Jeep drive around or kid running up and down the hall would be pretty noisy for surrounding units. If they guy couldn’t address the issue after the first few complaints he obviously doesn’t give a shit about the neighbors etc.

While some people are obviously dicks and report everything, when you’ve been reported 3+ times (and seemingly from different people) you’re probably being an inconsiderate asshole.

[asian_XL]

I have a kid and always check with my neighbours if my daughter makes noise in our place. However, the family who lives upstair at my parents apartment is apparently an asshole, they move chairs or table in the middle of the night, obviously they have wooden floor and all the toy dragging noise is coming down to us. My dad did went up there and bang their door like a mad man a several times, but that never stop the noise. Some people deserved to be kicked out.

[68style]

I own my place and don't rent, but recently a unit somewhere above me has been running their laundry machine pretty much 24/7 and we are unable to figure out which one it is as the guy directly above us is adamant that it's not him.

I am super curious what would make someone do that though? Any guesses?

Literally thinking you need to launder money?
Washing linens constantly from a self-owned/operated restaurant?
Brothel washing bedsheets and towels constantly?

That's the only ones I've been able to imagine lol...

lol if a condo could be a whore house where they are constantly doing laundry to wash new towels and such

[Eff-1]

I recommend people read the arbitrator's decision. There is so much more to this story that wasn't reported in the media.

The tenant testified that they do not feel that they have to police their child, as their child
does need to burn of energy as their child is two (2) years old.

The tenant testified that they did tell the occupant that they could move, only because it
was the landlords’ responsibility to tell the occupants that a child lived above their unit
and they could expect noise of a child.

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1ECSeE7GmnRsDF05AEJx1gC0byufw4skX/view

Up until this point, he admitted on his FB that he believed an eviction for being noisy simply wasn't possible.

Now that he's learned he was wrong, he is upset he only has 10 days to move and calls the media. But the eviction notice was originally served back on November 27. He's only in a jam now because he simply didn't think he could lose the arbitration.

EDIT - he updated the link with more of his own evidence and the recording of the entire call. I haven't listened yet, will check it out later.

It’s only my wife and I in our home. We go to the gym 3-4 times a week and then underwear and whatnot we honestly have an insane amount of laundry, like we are doing a load almost on a daily basis

So it wouldn’t be uncommon to run a load daily, but all night is a little excessive

[68style]

^ Yah I don't want to eat up too much of the thread, but it's all night... and all day... it never stops, I've gotten so used to it I can predict exactly when it's about to change modes between agitating and draining water lol

[unit]

short term rental, washing sheets and towels every day?

[yray]

so these rental buildings don't require a strata?

[Hondaracer]

so these rental buildings don't require a strata?

There’s different types.

You’ve got the mixed buildings with a full time-strata and a mix of renters and owners where you usually have a building manager/strata member on site available during working hours

Then you have the management companies who manage for the strata, who may or may not have somone on site

Then you have the full blown, 100% rental buildings who sometimes hire a resident to manage the affairs, OR they manage everything off-site and are only available as per request etc

[fliptuner]

But single dads though... I'd give him a break just because he's a single dad.

I'm a single dad. Boo hoo. Not special.

[Presto]

Comment from an alleged neighbor (bottom of article) seems to confirm that guy is a fucking douche:
Everyone has the right to quiet enjoyment of their residence. I live across the hall from Mr Astifan and have many times been disturbed by him and his son running and playing in the hallway. I can only imagine the noise level for the couple that live below him. I spoke to the building manager and was told Mr Astifan was made aware of the noise issues several times verbally in the hopes it would not continue. That did not happen. He was offered alternate suites in the building as well as other properties in the owner’s portfolio. He refused. He lives in a beautiful unit with an open loft and was suggested that this bright spacious open loft area would be a better play area for his son. He refused that suggestion as well. After many months of discussion, a first written breach notice was issued. In many buildings you only receive one written warning before eviction notices are given. Mr Astifan was given a second notice a few weeks later. His response was, he pays $2865 a month and his son can do whatever he wants. He was warned that a third notice would result in an eviction notice. He responded by saying, go ahead and give me another one then I’ll get 2 months free rent. Im not sure what he meant by that. Mr Astifan is trying to paint himself as a victim and that is just not the case here. I am pleased with the efforts of our owners in handling the situation and with the RTB for their process.

Just throwing it out that that as a parent often there are things I'm doing at the end of the night i.e. washing dishes and sometimes even laundry. Depending on the washing habits of the person it isn't out of the question to say the laundry is going all night or at least feels like it. If someone uses a regular wash mode and opts for extra rinse and spin that load could take like 2hrs and drying on top after could be another hr. But meh who knows.

It seems like this is one of those guys who wants to use all the rules in his favor to push his issue but when those same rules are applied towards him he doesn't think they should apply or are relevant.

I wouldn't rent to this guy, he'd be a nightmare.

[Mr.HappySilp]

Dude is an asshole. When I live with my parents in their house and they rented the basement suite to a couple with 3 kids (2, 4 and 7 years old). Never we had any noise issue. Sure you might hear them once awhile but it wasn't crazy. In fact I think we make more noise than they do when we have guest over. Is about how you teach your kids and this guy doesn't seem to care.

This guy is lucky he doesn't live in my building coz if he was he would have gotten the boot ages ago. People are anal about noise in my building that there were 6 or 7(can't remember) noise complain during New Year Eve. My god is New year eve of course people is going to have guest over and party. Just relax.

i wonder if he would be publicly shamed now the information is out they tried siding with him but he gave such an asshole response back.

He's getting earfuls from other people on his FB page :haha:

[MG1]

It's always a good day when a douchebag gets what's coming to him. I feel sorry for the son. His father is not doing him a favour. Most likely, the kid is going to grow up to be just like his father.

I can see why he's a single father. What woman in her right mind would put up with such an asswipe. Sad part is, the mother had a child with this loser.

[Ludepower]

It was mentioned earlier. For the Residential Tenacy board to kick the tenant...he must of really fucked up bad.

I had to deal with a problem tenant with mental issues who was purposely slow trickle flooding the suite, banging weights on the ground and police reports confirming it

The tenant won the hearing even with all the evidence and written statements from fellow tenants. They have so many rights and chances that they usually win.

The happy ending to my nightmare was me and other tenants forcibly removing him and his belongings on the street and not giving a fuck if the cops came.

Had twins and are using cloth diapers? Even though their clothes are tiny the amount of laundry my kid generates is insane, if you did cloth diapers as well and then doubled that you'd have a crazy amount of stuff to wash and if you have smaller/slower machines you'd be pretty much constantly running them.

That or they've got one of those cloth diaper pick up/drop off services and are running it all out of their apartment.

Was trying to figure that out myself and I could be totally wrong here but it seemed like some MLM where basically the business model is you get people who have businesses to pay you to speak to them about how they can improve their business.

The rub is their only qualification is being able to sucker people in to pay them for business advice even though they have no real credentials. It's almost like that old saying, "those who can't do teach" but they took it to the nth degree.

[Expresso]

Read some of the RTB documentation. This was one of the complaints lol.

This issue was first brought up on January 30th, 2018 in which I used to take Marcus running in the hallways at night to burn off his energy before bed. After receiving a letter from Serge, I apologized and I stopped taking him running in the hallways

Wouldn't your tenants able to sue you for doing that? You could get yourself in a lot of troubles for doing that...... Now I wonder what would happen if the other tenants who also live there place a restarining order against the crazy tenant. Would he be kick out automically then since he can't come close to the other tenants with a retarning order.

[freakshow]

If he ran through the hallways a few times and played in the lobby, then stopped after the warnings, he wouldn't have been evicted.

Something is missing from this article... like the other 3 million times of him being an asshole neighbour

Agreed, buddy can say what he wants but it's pretty clear he felt it's his place he has a lease and they can't kick him out for a noisy kid so fuck em go ahead kid do whatever you want the tenant laws will protect me. He didn't stop to consider that those same tenant laws apply to the people around him and their enjoyment of their space.

IMO the nail in his coffin was that the landlord tried to compromise with him by offering different units, if this didn't happen he probably would have won. Since they tried everything they could do to reasonably solve the problem for everyone involved they arbitrator had no choice but to side against him.

[m4k4v4li]

hopefully he doesn't instill these entitled values into his offspring that one's personal needs should supersede that of the common good

just like how he value's his own loft view over the freedom of his child to express himself and have fun, some people shouldn't procreate

imagine being stuck on an island with this douchebag who refuses to compromise

guy would get immediately banished and tied to a wooden floaty

[Eff-1]

I listened to the recording as well and I don't think he was necessarily being disrespectful. I think the main challenge was he kept making excuses for his behavior over and over again. For example, he admits he lets his kid run through the hall whenever they leave the house or come home and feels it's not important to try and stop him, even though he's received numerous complaints about his kid being noisy in the halls. The arbitrator clearly didn't agree with that perspective.

As the call went along, if you boil down his testimony, it basically was "I did everything I could do", "There's nothing more I can do" and "I'm too busy of a guy to deal with this". I'm paraphrasing here, but you get the idea. He believed he was 100% right and was being harassed.

The landlord, on the other hand, presented evidence in the form of witness testimonies and said they gave several verbal warnings before any kind of written warning, plus offered to relocate the guy to one of two different suites. It's funny how so many people, including the arbitrator, said how this was a totally reasonable and perfect resolution to the matter. Everyone except this guy, who simply refuses to accept full responsibility.

When the warnings were being delivered, the dad even told the landlord to keep giving him warnings so that when he gets evicted, the landlord would have to compensate him with 2 months of rent (which is not true). That alone speaks to his character. Makes for a pretty easy decision for any arbitrator when you hear evidence like that.

Fuck me.

It's only a matter of time before the landlord hires a sheriff and the sheriff goes in there and physically removes him and puts all his stuff into storage.

i listened to the entire hearing and the guys defense was poor.
It's no different than disputing a speeding ticket and going in and saying I wasn't speeding as his defense.
That was probably why the Arb ruled in favor of the landlord.

I wonder if he was dumb enough to post the decision.
