Order

Kenneth Wieblitz must pay Whalan And Partners Limited T/As Bayleys Property Management Canterbury As Agent For Lillian And Gisella Carr $3,601.29 immediately, calculated as shown in table below.

Reasons

This application was scheduled to be heard by teleconference. I rang the tenant on the number provided twice but on both occasions my call went to voicemail. The hearing proceeded in his absence.
The landlord has applied for rent arrears, compensation and reimbursement of the filing fee following the end of the tenancy.

How much is owed for rent?

The tenancy ended on 20 September 2023. The landlord provided rent records which prove the amount owing at the end of the tenancy. This amount includes payment of the bond towards arrears.

Did the tenant comply with their obligations at the end of the tenancy?

At the end of the tenancy the tenant must leave the premises reasonably clean and tidy, remove all rubbish, return all keys and security devices, and leave all chattels provided for their benefit. See section 40(1)(e)(ii)-(v) Residential Tenancies Act 1986.
I accept the photographic evidence which proves that the tenant did not leave the premises reasonably clean and tidy, either inside or outside, and did not remove all rubbish.
The tenant also did not return the keys or the garage door remotes.
The amounts ordered to remedy these issues are proved by invoices.

Is the tenant responsible for the damage to the premises?

A landlord must prove that damage to the premises occurred during the tenancy and is more than fair wear and tear. If this is established, to avoid liability, the tenant must prove they did not carelessly or intentionally cause or permit the damage. Tenants are liable for the actions of people at the premises with their permission. See sections 40(2)(a), 41 and 49B RTA.
The landlord originally made a claim for $340.00 with regard to damaged paint on the inside walls caused by nails and screws. At today’s hearing this part of their claim was withdrawn. Filing fee reimbursement
I am also ordering the tenant to reimburse the filing fee to Whalan And Partners Limited T/As Bayleys Property Management Canterbury As Agent For Lillian And Gisella Carr because they have wholly succeeded in the claim against him. C ter Haar 07 December 2023
