What happened

Landlords 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 paid the full rent from January 1, 2020 to August 31, 2020.

The ruling

The tenancy is terminated effective October 31, 2020. The Tenant must pay $6,826.21 to the Landlords, which includes rent arrears up to September 28, 2020 and the cost of filing the application, less the rent deposit and interest on the deposit. The Tenant must also pay $28.27 per day for compensation for use of the unit starting September 29, 2020 until the Tenant moves out. If the Tenant does not pay the full amount by October 31, 2020, the Tenant will start owing interest at 2% annually on the outstanding balance.
