DREWLO HOLDINGS INC. v STUEBING

Landlord provided evidence of a series of Board orders dating back to 2018, where the Tenant has missed rent payments and relied on the leniency of the Board to preserve the tenancy. Landlord submitted the Tenant is well aware that rent is due on the first day of the month, not the first business day of the month. Landlord further submitted that the Landlord withdrew the option of allowing preauthorized payments because the Tenant has consistently missed payments causing the Landlord to incur extra fees from the bank.

Tenant believes even though he paid the rent on the third day of the month, due to the bank closures, the Landlord received the funds on the first business day of the month so the outcome to the Landlord is the same. Tenant further submits, if the Landlord would have not withdrawn the option of taking pre-authorized payments from his account, the Tenant would have paid on time.

Tenant acknowledged paying the rent due September 1, 2024, on September 3, 2024. Tenant did not pay the rent on September 1, 2024, because he did not want to incur a $17.50 charge imposed by the Landlord's online payment processor.

Tenant has a history of missing rent payments and breaching LTB orders
