What happened

Landlords applied for an order to terminate the tenancy and evict Tenants due to persistent late payment of rent. The Landlords served a valid N8 notice on the Tenants, alleging late rent payments on 28 occasions between September 2013 and December 2020, and 15 occasions between January 2022 and August 2022.

The ruling

The Landlords' application is dismissed. The evidence presented did not meet the burden of proof required to establish persistent late payment of rent.
