What happened

Landlord applied for an order to terminate the tenancy and evict Tenants because the Landlord has entered into an agreement of purchase and sale of the rental unit and the purchaser requires possession of the rental unit for the purpose of residential occupation.

The ruling

The tenancy between the Landlord and the Tenants is terminated as of August 31, 2021. The Tenants must move out of the rental unit on or before August 31, 2021. The amount the Landlord is holding for the rent deposit and the interest owing on the deposit exceeds the amount the Tenants owe for compensation by $1,323.88.
