Decision
The tenancy is terminated effective April 13, 2021, the date the tenant vacated the rental unit. The tenant is ordered to pay $10,400.35 to the landlord, which includes rent arrears up to the move-out date and the cost of filing the application, less the rent deposit and interest on the deposit. If the full amount is not paid by August 22, 2021, the tenant will owe interest at 2% annually on the outstanding balance.
