What happened

The Landlord applied for rent arrears and daily compensation from a Former Tenant who vacated the unit on March 31, 2023. Additionally, the Landlord sought compensation for alleged willful or negligent damages, including cleaning and disposal costs. The Tenant contested the validity of a rent increase and the damage claims.

The ruling

The Former Tenant is ordered to pay the Landlord $1,945.42. This amount accounts for $3,300.00 in rent arrears and the $186.00 filing fee, minus the last month's rent deposit and interest. The Landlord's claim for $1,623.70 in damages was dismissed because the cleaning and disposal costs were deemed to be part of normal turnover and general uncleanliness rather than undue damage caused by the tenant.
