The landlord's applications were dismissed. The landlord failed to serve a valid N1 notice for the rent increase, so the lawful rent remained at $2,000.48 per month. The landlord also failed to prove the tenant wilfully or negligently caused damage to the rental unit.
Landlord applied to terminate the tenancy and evict the tenants due to non-payment of rent and damage to the rental unit. The landlord claimed the tenants owed $2,050.48 per month in rent starting January 1, 2024, but the tenants disputed the rent increase, arguing the landlord did not serve a valid N1 notice.
Landlord argued the tenant wilfully or negligently caused damage by improperly removing the bidet, damaging the shut-off valve.
Landlord received a call about a water leak, discovered the tenant had installed a bidet, and charged the tenant $460.09 to replace the shut-off valve.
Landlord failed to serve a valid N1 notice for the rent increase.
Tenant argued the shut-off valve issue was due to normal wear and tear, not damage caused by installing/removing the bidet.
Tenant installed a bidet on the toilet, which caused a water leak. Tenant removed the bidet and reported the shut-off valve was leaking.
