What happened

The Landlords filed an application seeking $10,770.29 from the Former Tenant for undue damages to the rental unit, including a fume hood, carpeting on two floors, a water stain on the living room ceiling, and a peeling bathroom door. The tenancy had already terminated on May 15, 2024.

The ruling

The Former Tenant is ordered to pay the Landlords $920.35. This amount consists of $734.35 for the reasonable cost to replace a damaged first-floor carpet and $186.00 for the application filing fee. The Landlords' other claims for damages totaling over $10,000 were dismissed due to a lack of evidence proving the Former Tenant was at fault.
