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 tenant had not vacated the rental unit as of the hearing date.

The ruling

The tenancy is terminated effective October 19, 2020. The tenant must pay the landlord $7,375.00, which includes rent arrears up to September 30, 2020 and the cost of filing the application. If the tenant does not pay the full amount by October 19, 2020, the tenant will start to owe interest at 2% annually on the outstanding balance. If the unit is not vacated by October 19, 2020, the landlord may file the order with the Court Enforcement Office (Sheriff) for enforcement. The tenant may void the order and continue the tenancy by paying $8,450.00 on or before October 19, 2020.
