What happened

Landlord applied for an order to terminate the tenancy and evict Tenant due to non-payment of rent and wilful or negligent damage to the premises. The Landlord served the Tenant with a valid N4 Notice for non-payment of rent and an N5 Notice for damage to the property, which the Tenant did not void. The Tenant vacated the rental unit on July 1, 2023.

The ruling

The tenancy is terminated effective July 1, 2023, the date the Tenant vacated the rental unit. The Tenant is ordered to pay the Landlord $18,298.47 for rent arrears and application filing fees, and $12,903.47 for damages, for a total of $33,089.47. If the Tenant does not pay the full amount by June 21, 2024, they will owe interest at 7% annually on the outstanding balance.
