What happened

The Tenant applied for an order determining that the Landlord collected or retained money illegally, specifically regarding an improper rent increase, a failure to reimburse for maintenance work, and the non-return of a last month's rent deposit following the termination of the tenancy.

The ruling

The Landlord is ordered to pay the Tenant $1,643.99 by December 20, 2025. This includes the return of the last month's rent deposit, accrued interest, and the application filing fee. Claims regarding an illegal rent increase and maintenance reimbursement were dismissed.
