787 chars3. Also allowed was a total of $2,000 for emotional distress. This injury was found to be a consequence of the defendants’ wrongful acts and omissions in maintaining the apartment, see G. L. c. 186, § 14. The damages were not duplicative of the recovery under c. 93A, because the latter statute was limited, at the time of the events in suit, to “loss of money or property, real or personal.” § 9(1), as amended through St. 1971, c. 241. See Wolfberg v. Hunter, 385 Mass. 390, 396-397 (1982). (The present language of § 9(1) differs; we express no opinion on its scope.) There was nothing in the defendants’ contention that the plaintiffs had brought their distress on themselves by wrongfully keeping the defendants out of their apartment, thus preventing them from making improvements.
