What happened

Landlord applied for an order to terminate the tenancy and evict the Tenant's estate 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's estate did not void by paying the arrears. The Tenant had passed away, and the Tenant's estate was still in possession of the rental unit.

The ruling

The tenancy is terminated effective November 18, 2023 unless the Tenant's estate pays $4,795.62 to void the order and continue the tenancy. If the Tenant's estate does not pay the amount, they must vacate the unit by November 18, 2023 and pay the landlord $4,177.37, which includes rent arrears up to the hearing date and the cost of filing the application.
