Order

Martina Janecka must pay Patricia Joan Soundy $300.00 immediately, being rent arrears for the week from 24 September 2023 – 1 October 2023. This may be paid by the Bond Centre from the bond (5836606-001).
Martina Janecka is to pay Patricia Joan Soundy $20.44 immediately, being reimbursement of the filing fee.

Reasons

The hearing was held by teleconference on 17 January 2024. Ms Soundry (the landlord) attended the hearing. Ms Janecka (the tenant) did not attend. Ms Janecka was contacted several times on the contact number provided in the application but without success. I am satisfied that the ‘Hearing Notice’ is in order and that Ms Janecka is aware or ought to be aware of the proceedings. I considered it reasonable to proceed with the hearing in Ms Janecka’s absence.
The landlord has applied for rent arrears, refund of the bond, and reimbursement of the filing fee following the end of the tenancy.

How much is owed for rent?

The tenancy started on 9 July 2023.
On 24 August 2023, the landlord gave the tenant 63 days’ notice to end the tenancy as she would be returning to live in the property. The end date of the tenancy being 31 October 2023.
At this time, the tenant indicated that she would be leaving at the end of September. She was advised that 28 days’ notice in writing was required. The landlord accepted the verbal notice in good faith.
On 12 September 2023, the tenant advised the landlord by email that she had decided to move earlier on 23 September 2023. The landlord reminded the tenant that she was required to give 28 day’s notice, and therefore was obliged to pay rent to the end of the month.
In the circumstances, the tenant was obliged to give the landlord 28 days’ notice in writing to end the tenancy. The landlord accepted the tenant’s verbal notice. Although the tenant decided to leave earlier than originally advised, she is still obliged to pay rent to the end of her notice period which would be 1 October 2023.
The landlord provided rent records which prove the amount owing at the end of the tenancy.
As the landlord is wholly successful with her claim, I must order the other party to reimburse the filing fee.
