What happened

The Landlords applied for termination of tenancy and eviction due to non-payment of rent (L1) and for conversion of the unit to non-residential use (L2). The L2 application was withdrawn at the hearing. The Tenant vacated the rental unit on October 1, 2025, before the hearing took place. The primary dispute concerned the calculation of rent arrears and the application of the last month's rent deposit, which the Landlord unsuccessfully attempted to apply to an earlier month.

The ruling

The tenancy is terminated effective October 1, 2025. The Tenant is ordered to pay the Landlords $2,609.92 by December 12, 2025. This amount accounts for rent arrears through the move-out date and the filing fee, less the rent deposit and accrued interest. Due to the Tenant's unemployment, a 30-day grace period was granted before post-judgment interest begins to accrue.
