The Landlord collected $5,600 in excess rent from the Tenants over 9 months. The Board ordered the Landlord to pay the Tenants $4,253, which includes $4,200 in excess rent collected and the $53 application fee.
Tenants applied for an order determining that the Landlord collected or retained money illegally by increasing the rent without proper notice. The Landlord increased the rent from $2,000 to $2,700 per month effective October 2021 without serving the required 90-day Notice of Rent Increase.
Tenants felt they had no choice but to accept the illegal rent increase to maintain the tenancy for the remainder of the school year.
