What happened
Landlord applied for an order to terminate the tenancy and evict Tenant 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 Tenant did not void by paying the arrears. The Tenant had vacated the rental unit prior to the hearing date.
The ruling
The tenancy is terminated effective October 30, 2021. The Tenant must pay the Landlord $20,356.21, which includes rent arrears up to the termination date and the cost of filing the application, less the rent deposit and interest owed on the deposit. The Tenant must also pay $56.84 per day for compensation for use of the unit from October 20, 2021 until the Tenant vacates. If the full amount is not paid by October 30, 2021, the Tenant will owe interest on the outstanding balance.
