What happened

Tenants applied for an order determining that Landlords collected or retained money illegally. The Landlords did not issue a lawful Notice of Rent Increase (NORI) in accordance with the Residential Tenancies Act, 2006.

The ruling

The Landlords must pay the Tenants $4,178.00, which includes $4,125.00 for excess rent collected and $53.00 for the cost of filing the application. The Landlords are ordered to pay the full amount by November 21, 2023, and will owe interest if they do not pay by that date.
