What happened

Landlord applied for an order to terminate the tenancy and evict Tenant due to failure to pay rent. The Landlord also applied for an order to terminate the tenancy because the Landlord in good faith requires possession of the rental unit for the purpose of residential occupation.

The ruling

The tenancy is terminated as of March 10, 2021, the date the Tenant vacated the rental unit. The Tenant shall pay the Landlord $11,419.89, which represents the amount of rent owing and compensation up to March 10, 2021, less the rent deposit and interest the Landlord owes on the rent deposit. The Tenant shall also pay the Landlord $190.00 for the cost of filing the application. If the Tenant does not pay the full amount owing by May 1, 2021, the Tenant will start to owe interest at 2.00% annually on the balance outstanding.
