What happened

Landlords 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 had not vacated the rental unit by the hearing date.

The ruling

The tenancy is terminated unless the Tenant pays $31,081 by January 31, 2023 to void the order. If the Tenant does not pay, the Tenant must move out by January 31, 2023 and pay the Landlord $27,165.04, which includes rent arrears and the application filing fee, minus the rent deposit and interest. The Tenant will also owe daily compensation of $69.04 for each day of occupation starting January 6, 2023.
