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 ruling
The Landlord's purported rent increase is invalid, and the lawful rent remains $1,349.00. The Tenants are ordered to pay the Landlord $464.39, which represents the arrears of rent and costs outstanding for the period ending August 31, 2021. If the Tenants do not pay the full amount by November 29, 2021, they will start to owe interest.
