The Landlord must pay the Tenants $7,872.00, which includes $7,824.00 for the rent differential the Tenants incurred for 12 months after vacating the unit, and $48.00 for the cost of filing the application. The Landlord did not attend the hearing to rebut the presumption of bad faith.
Tenants, who are five Western University students, applied for an order determining that the Landlord gave a notice of termination in bad faith. The Landlord posted a two-month notice on the rental unit's door stating he needed the property for his personal use, and the Tenants vacated the unit. However, the Tenants later discovered the unit was advertised for rent at a higher price, indicating the Landlord did not move in.
