Dispute Summary
Landlord applied for an order to terminate the tenancy and evict Tenants 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 tenants did not void by paying the arrears.
Determinations
- Landlord served valid N4 Notice
- Tenants did not void notice by paying arrears
- Tenants in possession on application date
- Lawful rent due on 1st of each month
- Tenant paid $13,330 since application filed
Case Study
The tenant should have paid the rent arrears to void the N4 notice. The landlord provided detailed evidence of the rent payments and arrears, which was found more credible than the tenant's evidence. The landlord was entitled to the rent arrears and the cost of filing the application, minus the rent deposit and interest on the deposit.
Arguments and Actions
Landlord
Actions

If the tenant does not pay, they must vacate the unit by December 15, 2023 and pay the landlord $16,963.05 plus daily compensation of $71.01 per day starting October 25, 2023.
