What happened

Landlord applied for an order to terminate the tenancy and evict Tenants 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 tenants did not void by paying the arrears.

The ruling

The tenancy will be terminated if the tenants do not pay $6,286 by September 30, 2023 or $8,486 by October 1, 2023 to void the order. If the tenancy is terminated, the tenants must pay $2,796.45 to the landlord, which includes rent arrears up to the hearing date and the cost of filing the application, minus the rent deposit and interest.
