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 vacated the rental unit on November 24, 2020, prior to the hearing date.

The ruling

The tenancy was terminated effective November 24, 2020, the date the tenant vacated the rental unit. The tenant is ordered to pay $3,568.04 to the landlord, which includes rent arrears up to the move-out date and the cost of filing the application, less the rent deposit and interest on the deposit. If the tenant does not pay the full amount by March 25, 2021, they will owe interest at 2% annually on the outstanding balance.
