What happened

The Landlord applied to terminate the tenancy and evict the Tenants for non-payment of rent. The Tenants vacated the unit prior to the hearing. The primary disputes involved the existence of a rent deposit, which the Landlord denied but the Tenants claimed through ledger evidence, and a discrepancy in rent discounts based on the length of the lease term.

The ruling

The tenancy was terminated effective December 15, 2024, when the Tenants moved out. The Adjudicator determined that the Landlord owed the Tenants $2,353.83 because the held rent deposit and interest exceeded the arrears. The Landlord's request for the filing fee was denied because the Tenants were in a credit position at the time of the application.
