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 September 30, 2021. The Tenant must pay the Landlord $629.85, which represents the rent arrears and application filing fee, less the rent deposit and interest owed on the deposit. The Tenant must also pay $41.16 per day for compensation for use of the unit starting September 15, 2021 until the Tenant moves out. If the Tenant pays $2,689.90 on or before September 30, 2021, the eviction order will be void and the Tenant can remain in the unit.
