What happened

Landlord applied for an order to terminate the tenancy and evict Tenants due to non-payment of rent. The Landlord served a valid N4 Notice, which the Tenants did not void. The Tenants owed $6,679.75 in arrears and application fees as of October 31, 2022. The Tenants requested a repayment plan to preserve the tenancy, citing financial difficulties and inability to afford private sector rents.

The ruling

The Landlord's application for eviction is denied on the condition that the Tenants adhere to a repayment plan. The Tenants must pay $6,679.75 in arrears and costs, with payments spread over 11 months. The Tenants must also pay the monthly rent of $794.00 on time. If the Tenants fail to make any payments as ordered, the Landlord may apply for termination and eviction within 30 days of the breach.
