What happened

Landlords applied for an order to terminate the tenancy and evict Tenants 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 tenants did not void by paying the arrears. The tenants were still in possession of the rental unit at the time of the hearing.

The ruling

The tenancy will be terminated on January 31, 2024 unless the tenants pay $16,186 by December 31, 2023 or $18,186 by January 31, 2024 to void the order. If the tenancy is terminated, the tenants must pay $10,625.29 to the landlords, which includes rent arrears up to the hearing date and the cost of filing the application, minus the rent deposit and interest on the deposit. The tenants will also owe daily compensation of $65.75 for each day of occupation starting November 9, 2023.
