What happened
The Landlords applied to terminate the tenancy for non-payment of rent (L1) and substantial interference (L2), and to recover unpaid utility costs. The Tenant had already vacated the rental unit on August 9, 2024, prior to the hearing. The Tenant did not attend the hearing. The Board proceeded based on the Landlords' uncontested evidence.
The ruling
The tenancy is retroactively terminated as of August 9, 2024, the date the Tenant vacated. The Tenant is ordered to pay the Landlords a total of $7,475.36, which comprises $6,536.78 for rent arrears and application fees (less the rent deposit and interest) and $938.58 for unpaid utilities. Interest will accrue on any unpaid balance after June 13, 2025.
