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 was still in possession of the rental unit on the hearing date.

The ruling

The tenancy is terminated unless the tenant pays $2,086 by 2023-08-31 or $3,886 by 2023-09-09 to void the order. If the tenant does not pay, they must move out by 2023-09-09. The landlord is owed $1,900 in rent arrears and $186 in application fees, but the tenant is owed $631.87 for the rent deposit and interest.
