What happened

The tenant applied for an order determining that the landlords gave a notice of termination in bad faith. The landlords served the tenant with an N12 notice of termination, and the tenant vacated the rental unit as a result. The landlords then advertised and sold the property after the tenant moved out.

The ruling

The landlords must pay the tenant $17,503, which includes $14,400 for increased rent for one year, $600 for moving and storage expenses, and $2,450 for general compensation. The landlords must pay the full amount by July 21, 2024, or they will owe interest.
