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 was in possession of the rental unit on the application date.

The ruling

The tenant is ordered to pay the landlord $8,590 in rent arrears and $186 in application fees, for a total of $7,576 after applying the $1,200 rent deposit. If the tenant does not pay the full amount by October 31, 2021, they will owe interest at 2% annually on the outstanding balance.
