What happened
The Landlord applied to terminate the tenancy and evict the Tenant due to non-payment of rent. A preliminary issue arose regarding whether mortgagees who had registered a charge on the title should be considered landlords; the Board determined they were not. The Tenant failed to appear at the hearing and had already vacated the rental unit on March 23, 2025, leaving significant arrears.
The ruling
The tenancy was terminated effective March 23, 2025, the date the Tenant moved out. The Tenant is ordered to pay the Landlord $20,992.89 by November 14, 2025. This amount accounts for $23,641.71 in rent arrears and the $186.00 filing fee, minus the $2,700.00 rent deposit and $134.82 in interest on that deposit.
