What happened

The Tenant applied for an order determining that the Landlord failed to meet maintenance obligations, specifically regarding inadequate heat and unsafe electrical issues with the heating source between December 2022 and January 2023.

The ruling

The Landlord is ordered to pay the Tenant $537.58 by November 3, 2025. This includes $489.58 as a 30% rent abatement for a 38-day period without adequate heat and $48.00 for the filing fee. If the Landlord fails to pay, the Tenant is authorized to deduct the amount from their November 2025 rent.
