Omar Panton (the 'Tenant') because the Tenant did not pay the rent that the Tenant owes. This application was heard by videoconference on February 13, 2023. Only the Landlord’s legal representative, Sean Beard, attended the hearing. Determinations: 1. The Landlord served the Tenant with a valid Notice to End Tenancy Early for Non-payment 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 $1,155.12. It is due on the 1st day of each month. 4. Based on the Monthly rent, the daily rent/compensation is $37.98. This amount is calculated as follows: $1,155.12 x 12, divided by 365 days. 5. The Tenant has paid $6,350.00 to the Landlord since the application was filed. 6. The rent arrears owing to February 28, 2023 are $4,044.07. 7.
