We estimate Application Date using rent arrears.
Decision
The tenancy will be terminated on September 30, 2023 unless the tenants pay $8,466 to void the order and continue the tenancy. If the tenants do not pay, they must vacate the unit by September 30, 2023 and pay the landlords $5,721.73 plus daily compensation of $45.37 from August 30, 2023 until the date they move out.
Reason for Eviction Relief
Tenants have been out of work and relying on family, one has a job offer and the other has anxiety issues. Landlords are small and rely on the rental income.
Dispute
Landlords 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. The tenants were still in possession of the rental unit at the time of the hearing.
Determinations
- Landlords 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
- No payments made since application filed
