What happened

Landlords applied for an order to terminate the tenancy and evict Tenant due to failure to pay rent. The application was filed after serving a valid Notice to End Tenancy Early for Non-payment of Rent (N4 Notice), which the Tenant did not void by paying the arrears. The Tenant was still in possession of the rental unit on the hearing date.

The ruling

The tenancy is terminated unless the Tenant pays $14,136 to void the order by May 29, 2023. If the Tenant does not void the order, the Tenant must pay $12,374.64 to the Landlord, which includes rent arrears up to the hearing date and the cost of filing the application. The Tenant must also pay daily compensation of $78.58 for each day of occupation starting May 9, 2023 until the Tenant moves out.
