MARIE ON P6C4N9 Between: Julie Dang and Northstar Property Landlords Management Inc. And Guy Gioventu Tenant Julie Dang and Northstar Property Management Inc. (the 'Landlords') applied for an order to terminate the tenancy and evict Guy Gioventu (the 'Tenant') because the Tenant did not pay the rent that the Tenant owes. This application was heard by videoconference on June 20, 2023. Only the Landlord Julie Dang and the Landlord’s Agent Greta Wilson attended the hearing. As of 10:01 a.m., the Tenant was not present or represented at the hearing although properly served with notice of this hearing by the LTB. There was no record of a request to adjourn the hearing. As a result, the hearing proceeded with only the Landlords' evidence. Determinations: 1. The Landlords served the Tenant with a valid Notice to End Tenancy Early for Nonpayment of Rent (N4 Notice). The Tenant did not void the notice by paying the amount of rent arrears owing by the termination date in the N4 Notice or before the date the application was filed. 2. As of the hearing date, the Tenant was still in possession of the rental unit. 3. The lawful rent is $1,550.00. It is due on the 1st day of each month.

The Tenant has not made any payments since the application was filed. 6. The rent arrears owing to June 30, 2023 are $9,300.00. 2023 ONLTB 47162 (CanLII) 7. The Landlords incurred costs of $186.00 for filing the application and is entitled to reimbursement of those costs. 8. The Landlords collected a rent deposit of $1,550.00 from the Tenant and this deposit is still being held by the Landlords. The rent deposit can only be applied to the last rental period of the tenancy if the tenancy is terminated. 9. Interest on the rent deposit, in the amount of $20.17 is owing to the Tenant for the period from December 13, 2022 to June 20, 2023. 10. I have considered all of the disclosed circumstances in accordance with subsection 83(2) of the Residential Tenancies Act, 2006 (the 'Act'), including the impact of COVID-19 on the parties and whether the Landlords attempted to negotiate a repayment agreement with the Tenant and find that it would be unfair to grant relief from eviction pursuant to subsection 83(1) of the Act. The Landlords sent emails to the Tenant asking her to contact them for a payment plan but the Tenant has not responded to any attempts made by the Landlord. It is ordered that: 1. The tenancy between the Landlords and the Tenant is terminated unless the Tenant voids this order. 2. The Tenant may void this order and continue the tenancy by paying to the Landlords or to the LTB in trust: • $11,036.00 if the payment is made on or before July 17, 2023. See Schedule 1 for the calculation of the amount owing. 3. The Tenant may also make a motion at the LTB to void this order under section 74(11) of the Act, if the Tenant has paid the full amount owing as ordered plus any additional rent that became due after July 17, 2023 but before the Court Enforcement Office (Sheriff) enforces the eviction. The Tenant may only make this motion once during the tenancy. 4. If the Tenant does not pay the amount required to void this order the Tenant must move out of the rental unit on or before July 17, 2023. 5. If the Tenant does not void the order, the Tenant shall pay to the Landlords $7,385.03. This amount includes rent arrears owing up to the date of the hearing and the cost of filing the application. The rent deposit and interest the Landlords owes on the rent deposit are deducted from the amount owing by the Tenant. See Schedule 1 for the calculation of the amount owing.

The Tenant shall also pay the Landlords compensation of $50.96 per day for the use of the unit starting June 21, 2023 until the date the Tenant moves out of the unit. 7. If the Tenant does not pay the Landlords the full amount owing on or before July 17, 2023, the Tenant will start to owe interest. This will be simple interest calculated from July 18, 2023 at 6.00% annually on the balance outstanding. 2023 ONLTB 47162 (CanLII) 8. If the unit is not vacated on or before July 17, 2023, then starting July 18, 2023, the Landlords may file this order with the Court Enforcement Office (Sheriff) so that the eviction may be enforced. 9.
