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 tenancy is terminated effective April 6, 2021. The Tenants must pay the Landlord $14,623.88, which includes rent arrears up to the termination date and the cost of filing the application, less the rent deposit and interest on the deposit. The Tenants must also pay $65.75 per day for compensation for the use of the unit starting March 27, 2021 until the date they move out. If the Tenants do not pay the full amount owing by April 6, 2021, they will start to owe interest at 2.00% annually on the outstanding balance.
