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 ruling

The tenancy is terminated effective December 31, 2022, the date the Tenant vacated the rental unit. The Tenant is ordered to pay $12,777.89 to the Landlord, which includes rent arrears up to the move-out date and the cost of filing the application, minus the rent deposit and interest on the deposit. If the Tenant does not pay the full amount owing by June 30, 2023, interest will start accruing at 5% annually on the outstanding balance.
