What happened

The Landlords applied to terminate the tenancy based on substantial interference with reasonable enjoyment and for personal use. They also sought compensation for unpaid utility costs. The Tenant vacated the unit on January 18, 2025, prior to the hearing. Consequently, the Landlords only pursued the reimbursement of out-of-pocket expenses for unpaid utilities and the application filing fee.

The ruling

The LTB ordered the Tenant to pay the Landlord a total of $618.87. This amount covers $432.87 in unpaid utility expenses and the $186.00 filing fee. The tenancy was officially terminated on January 18, 2025, the date the Tenant vacated. If payment is not made by July 15, 2025, interest will accrue at a rate of 4.00% per annum.
