What happened

The Landlord applied for the termination of tenancy and eviction due to significant rent arrears. The Tenant admitted to the arrears, citing unemployment since early 2025. While the Landlord faced financial strain regarding mortgage payments, he agreed to an extended 30-day eviction period instead of the standard 11 days.

The ruling

The LTB ordered the tenancy terminated effective November 29, 2025. The Tenant must pay $13,877.90 to the Landlord for rent arrears and filing costs. If the Tenant pays $15,186.00 (covering all arrears including the month of November) on or before the termination date, the eviction order will be voided and the tenancy continued.
