The Board found that the Landlords substantially interfered with Tenants' reasonable enjoyment through excessive notices of entry. However, the application was dismissed as the remedies requested by Tenants were not appropriate given that they had already decided to move out before most of the notices were delivered.
Tenants claimed Landlords entered the rental unit illegally and substantially interfered with their reasonable enjoyment through excessive notices of entry, unreasonable entries, and a significant rent increase. The application was dismissed, but the Board found that the Landlords substantially interfered with Tenants' reasonable enjoyment through excessive notices of entry.
Landlords argued that the rent increase was lawful and not intended to force Tenants out.
Landlords delivered eight notices of entry over a six-month period, many of which were deficient in detail or unnecessary. During one entry, a Landlord's agent picked up and shook an envelope addressed to the Landlords.
Landlords' notices of entry often lacked specific dates and times, violating section 27(3) of the Residential Tenancies Act.
Tenants argued that the volume of notices was unreasonable, many notices were deficient in detail, and some entries were conducted unreasonably.
Tenants arranged their lives around the notices, occasionally taking time off work. They were concerned about the security of their valuables and work materials due to frequent potential entries.
