What happened

The Landlord applied for an order requiring the Tenant to pay rent arrears. The Tenant vacated the rental unit on July 31, 2025, following a dispute over the required notice period for termination. While the Tenant attempted to provide notice in May for a July 1st move-out, the Landlord insisted on 60 days notice as per the Act, resulting in an N11 agreement for July 31, 2025.

The ruling

The Tenant is ordered to pay the Landlord $2,565.11 by September 30, 2025. This amount accounts for rent arrears and the application filing fee, minus the rent deposit and accrued interest. The tenancy was determined to have ended on July 31, 2025, based on the statutory 60-day notice requirement and a signed N11 agreement.
