What happened

The landlords applied for an order requiring the former tenant to pay the landlord's reasonable out-of-pocket costs that are the result of the former tenant's failure to pay utility costs they were required to pay under the terms of the tenancy agreement. The landlords also applied for an order requiring the former tenant to pay the landlord's reasonable out-of-pocket costs that the landlord has incurred or will incur to repair or replace undue damage to the property.

The ruling

The former tenant is ordered to pay the landlord $14,413.28 by September 16, 2023, which includes $4,338.72 for unpaid utility costs, $9,873.56 for damage caused, and $201.00 for the cost of filing the application. If the former tenant does not pay the full amount by the due date, they will start to owe interest at 6% annually on the outstanding balance.
