What happened

Tenants applied for an order determining that the Landlord substantially interfered with their reasonable enjoyment of the rental unit or residential complex, and harassed, obstructed, coerced, threatened or interfered with the Tenants.

The ruling

The Landlord must pay the Tenants $2,998.00 for substantially interfering with their reasonable enjoyment of the premises regarding garage door issues, noise complaints, and the tinting business in the garage. The Landlord's actions regarding the mailbox key and access to the outdoor terrace/backyard did not constitute substantial interference.
