In a pivotal ruling in Qu v. Zhang, 2025 ONCA 391, the Ontario Court of Appeal affirmed that an ex-wife was the sole beneficial owner of a jointly titled home—rejecting the presumption of joint ownership under Section 14 of the Family Law Act based on her evidence and real-estate investment intent. The court also upheld an order requiring the ex-husband to pay occupation rent (August 2017 to October 2023) and cover repair costs—demonstrating the importance of clear beneficial-ownership documentation.
