What happened

Tenant filed a T6 application alleging that Landlords failed to meet maintenance obligations, including issues with water/flooding, mold, electrical problems, water quality, and fire safety concerns. The Tenant sought compensation for damaged property, out-of-pocket expenses, and repairs to the rental unit.

The ruling

The Landlord and Tenant Board ordered the Landlords to pay the Tenant $1,778 for replacement cost of damaged clothes, $420 for purchase of water, and $50 for the cost of filing the application, totaling $2,248. The full amount is due by February 13, 2022, with interest accruing at 1.22% annually on any outstanding balance after that date.
