This application was heard by videoconference on November 7, 2023. Only the Landlord’s Agent Faith McGregor attended the hearing. As of 2:15 pm, the Tenants were 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 Landlord's evidence. Determinations: 1. The Landlord served the Tenants with a valid Notice to End Tenancy Early for Non- payment of Rent (N4 Notice). The Tenants 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 Tenants were still in possession of the rental unit. 3. The lawful rent is $2,961.53. It is due on the 1st day of each month. 4. Based on the Monthly rent, the daily rent/compensation is $97.37. This amount is calculated as follows: $2,961.53 x 12, divided by 365 days. 5. The Tenants have not made any payments since the application was filed. 6. The rent arrears owing to November 30, 2023, are $34,676.23. Order Page 1 of 5 File Number: LTB-L-050505-23 7.
