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 ruling

The tenancy is terminated effective August 15, 2020. The Tenant must pay the Landlord $8,094.94, which represents arrears of rent up to March 31, 2020 ($9,000.00), less the last month's rent deposit ($900.00) and the interest owing on the deposit ($5.06). The Tenant must also pay the Landlord $29.59 per day for compensation for the use of the unit starting August 5, 2020 to the date the Tenant moves out, as well as $175.00 for the cost of filing the application. If the Tenant does not pay the full amount by August 15, 2020, the Tenant will start to owe interest at 2.00% annually on the outstanding balance.
