What happened

Landlord applied for an order to terminate the tenancy and evict Tenant 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 tenant did not void by paying the arrears. The tenant remained in possession of the rental unit on the hearing date.

The ruling

The tenancy is terminated effective October 30, 2022 unless the Tenant pays $14,586 to void the order and continue the tenancy. If the Tenant does not pay, they must vacate the unit by October 30, 2022 and pay the Landlord $11,491.47, which includes rent arrears and the application filing fee, minus the rent deposit and interest.
