We estimate Application Date using rent arrears.
The tenancy is terminated effective October 4, 2021. The Tenant must pay the Landlord $35,000, which represents the amount of rent owing and compensation up to September 23, 2021, less the rent deposit and interest the Landlord owes on the rent deposit. The Tenant must also pay the Landlord $64.11 per day for compensation for the use of the unit starting September 24, 2021 to the date the Tenant moves out, and $186 for the cost of filing the application. If the Tenant does not pay the full amount owing by October 4, 2021, the Tenant will start to owe interest at 2% annually on the outstanding balance.
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.
Tenant seeks the opportunity to preserve his tenancy but does not see himself having to pay the full amount of arrears claimed by the Landlord. Tenant proposes to pay his rent on time effective August 2021. Tenant also seeks four months to secure alternative housing, citing his 70-year-old mother and his own injury.
Tenant disputes the arrears as claimed by the Landlord and testified that the parties came to an agreement in July 2021, but did not provide any evidence to demonstrate a different amount of arrears. Tenant confirmed he did not pay the rent for March 2021.
