What happened

The Tenant filed an application alleging the Landlords substantially interfered with her reasonable enjoyment and harassed her. The allegations included an attempt to cancel the lease immediately after signing, refusal to issue rent receipts, and an attempt to revoke parking privileges. The Tenant had already vacated the unit before the hearing.

The ruling

The LTB found that the Landlords harassed the Tenant by sending a text message to revoke her parking privileges. The other allegations were dismissed. The Landlords are ordered to pay the Tenant $100.00 in compensation for the harassment, plus the $48.00 application fee, for a total of $148.00.
