What happened

The Landlords applied to terminate the tenancy and evict the Tenants due to significant rent arrears exceeding $31,000. The Tenants challenged the service of the N4 notice and attempted to raise maintenance/harassment issues under section 82, which were barred due to lack of disclosure. The Landlords demonstrated financial hardship caused by the non-payment, requiring them to borrow funds for mortgage payments.

The ruling

The tenancy is terminated effective July 15, 2025. The Tenants may void the eviction by paying $34,302.15 by July 15, 2025. If the Tenants do not void the order, they must vacate by July 15, 2025, and pay the Landlords $28,692.83 plus daily compensation of $95.34 from June 3, 2025, until they move out.
