What happened

The Landlord applied to evict the Tenant for substantial interference, damages, and overcrowding. At the hearing, the parties reached a consent agreement to terminate the tenancy. The hearing proceeded only on the Landlord's contested claim for compensation for a damaged garage door and basement door. The Board found the Tenant was not responsible for the garage door but was responsible for the basement door.

The ruling

The tenancy is terminated by mutual consent, effective July 31, 2025. The Tenant is ordered to pay the Landlord $214.70 for a damaged basement door. This amount is deducted from the Tenant's $1,400.00 rent deposit and $19.66 accrued interest, resulting in a balance of $1,204.96 owed by the Landlord to the Tenant.
