What happened

Landlord applied for an order to terminate the tenancy and evict Tenants due to failure to pay rent. The application was filed after serving a valid Notice to End Tenancy Early for Non-payment of Rent (N4 Notice), which the tenants did not void by paying the arrears. The tenants had vacated the rental unit on July 31, 2020, prior to the hearing date.

The ruling

The tenancy was terminated effective July 31, 2020, the date the tenants vacated the rental unit. The tenants are ordered to pay $3,100 to the landlord, which represents the amount of rent owing and compensation up to July 31, 2020 and the landlord's Board filing costs, less the rent deposit and interest the landlord owes on the rent deposit.
