6. The Landlord attempted to sell the house in the summer of 2011. This resulted in significant disruption to the Tenant for the months of June and July 2011, as real estate agents and their clients entered the rental unit several times a week, often with less than 24 hours notice. In addition, there were open houses held each weekend for several hours on each of Saturday and Sunday, which required the Tenant to vacate the rental unit to accommodate the open houses.

...

16. I find that the Tenant is entitled to a rent abatement of $390.00 which is 20% of the rent for each of the months of June and July 2011, for the disruption caused by the activities of the Landlord’s efforts to sell the property
