What happened

The Landlord applied for an order to terminate the tenancy and evict the Tenants due to non-payment of rent. The Landlord served a valid N4 notice, but the Tenants failed to pay the arrears to void the notice. The Tenants vacated the rental unit on May 31, 2025, prior to the hearing. The hearing proceeded in the absence of the Tenants, and the adjudicator calculated the remaining arrears after applying the last month's rent deposit and accrued interest.

The ruling

The tenancy is terminated effective May 31, 2025. The Tenants are ordered to pay the Landlord $1,341.12 by August 16, 2025. This amount accounts for $3,600.00 in rent arrears and the $186.00 filing fee, less the $2,400.00 rent deposit and $44.88 in interest. If payment is not made by the due date, interest will accrue at a rate of 4.00% annually.
