What happened

The landlord, RJMR Investments Inc., applied for an order to terminate the tenancy and evict the tenant, Leon Abrahim, due to non-payment of rent. The landlord served the tenant with a valid N4 Notice, and the tenant was in possession of the rental unit when the application was filed. The tenant vacated the unit on December 31, 2022, and has not made any payments since the application was filed.

The ruling

The tenancy is terminated effective December 31, 2022, the date the tenant vacated the rental unit. The tenant is ordered to pay the landlord $3,714.60, which includes rent arrears up to the move-out date and the cost of filing the application, minus the rent deposit and interest on the deposit. If the tenant does not pay the full amount by June 4, 2023, they will start owing interest at 6% annually on the outstanding balance.
