What happened

Tenants filed T6 and T2 applications against the Landlord for failure to meet maintenance obligations and for harassment, interference with reasonable enjoyment, and illegal entry. The Landlord denied most allegations and provided evidence of maintenance efforts.

The ruling

The T2 application was dismissed due to insufficient evidence. For the T6 application, the Landlord was ordered to inspect the unit, perform specific repairs, and arrange pest control treatments. The Tenants were not awarded a rent abatement. Future communication between parties must be in writing.
