What happened

The Landlord applied for termination of tenancy and compensation for damages, alleging the Tenants caused mold growth, damaged a kitchen countertop and range hood, and caused water damage to a bedroom floor. The Tenants moved out prior to the hearing, so the focus remained on the financial compensation for repairs.

The ruling

The Tenants are ordered to pay the Landlord $1,436.11. This includes $1,250.11 for the repair of kitchen damages (countertop and range hood) and $186.00 for the application filing fee. Claims regarding mold and bedroom flooring were dismissed. As the Tenants had already vacated, no eviction order was necessary.
