What happened

Landlords 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 February 1, 2020, prior to the hearing date.

The ruling

The tenancy was terminated effective February 1, 2020, the date the tenants vacated the rental unit. The tenants are ordered to pay $3,243.71 to the landlords, which includes rent arrears, compensation, and the cost of filing the application, less the rent deposit and interest on the deposit.
