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 vacated the rental unit prior to the hearing date.

The ruling

The tenancy is terminated effective September 20, 2021. The Tenant must pay the Landlords $1,859.96, which includes rent arrears up to September 9, 2021 and the cost of filing the application, less the rent deposit and interest owed on the deposit. The Tenant must also pay $45.65 per day for compensation for use of the unit starting September 10, 2021 until the Tenant moves out. If the Tenant does not pay the full amount by September 20, 2021, the Tenant will start owing interest. If the unit is not vacated by September 20, 2021, the Landlords may file the order with the Court Enforcement Office for enforcement.
