What happened

Landlords applied for an order to terminate the tenancy and evict the Tenant due to damages to the rental unit. The Landlords served a valid N5 notice, but the Tenant did not void the notice by repairing the damages or making arrangements with the Landlords.

The ruling

The Landlords proved grounds for compensation due to damages to the rental unit. The Tenant is ordered to pay $2,212.63 to the Landlords, which includes the cost of repairs and the application filing fee. The tenancy was terminated as of September 3, 2024 when the Tenant vacated the unit.
