What happened

Landlord applied for an order to terminate the tenancy and evict Tenant due to failure to pay rent, substantial interference with the reasonable enjoyment of the landlord or other tenants, and wilful or negligent damage to the rental unit and complex. The application was filed after serving a valid Notice to End Tenancy Early for Non-payment of Rent (N4 Notice), which the tenant did not void by paying the arrears. The tenant had vacated the rental unit on October 3, 2023, prior to the hearing date.

The ruling

The Landlord's application is granted. The tenancy is terminated effective October 3, 2023, the date the tenant vacated the rental unit. The tenant is ordered to pay the Landlord $5,876.54, which includes rent arrears, the cost of filing the application, and compensation for damages caused by the tenant. If the tenant does not pay the full amount by June 25, 2024, they will owe interest at 7% annually on the outstanding balance.
