What happened
The Tenant applied for an order determining that the Landlord substantially interfered with the reasonable enjoyment of the rental unit or residential complex by the Tenant or by a member of their household, and harassed, obstructed, coerced, threatened or interfered with the Tenant. The Tenant also applied for an order determining that the Landlord failed to meet the Landlord's maintenance obligations under the Residential Tenancies Act, 2006 or failed to comply with health, safety, housing or maintenance standards.
The ruling
The Tenant's T2 application was dismissed. The Tenant's T6 application was partially granted. The Landlord was ordered to repair or remediate the radiators, water problem in the living room, and water damage around the bedroom window by June 30, 2025. If the Landlord does not complete the repairs, the Tenant is authorized to arrange for the work to be done and deduct the costs from the rent. The Landlord was also ordered to pay the Tenant $9,156.63, which includes $9,108.63 in rent abatement and $48.00 for the cost of filing the application.
