What happened

Landlord applied to terminate the tenancy and evict the Tenants due to non-payment of rent and substantial interference with the reasonable enjoyment of the residential complex. The Tenants had not paid the full rent since February 2021, and the Landlord served a valid N4 Notice. The Landlord also served an N5 Notice alleging the Tenants' behavior substantially interfered with the Landlord's or other tenants' reasonable enjoyment, but the N5 Notice was found to be invalid.

The ruling

The tenancy is terminated effective September 27, 2021. The Tenants must pay the Landlord $4,732.44 in rent arrears and application costs, less the rent deposit and interest owed. If the Tenants do not pay the full amount by September 27, 2021, the Landlord may file the order with the Sheriff to enforce the eviction. The Landlord's L2 application for substantial interference was dismissed.
