What happened
Landlord applied for an order to terminate the tenancy and evict Tenants due to failure to pay rent. The application was filed after serving a valid Notice to End Tenancy Early for Non-payment of Rent (N4 Notice), which the tenants did not void by paying the arrears.
The ruling
The Tribunal found that the tenancy is not viable as the Tenants are not able to afford the rental unit and the rent arrears keep increasing. The Tribunal ordered the termination of the tenancy and eviction of the Tenants, with the Tenants required to pay $31,774.44 plus $49.32 per day starting February 2, 2022. The Tenants can void the eviction order by paying $33,186 on or before February 12, 2022.
