The landlord may dispose of the other goods left at the premises by the tenant as the landlord sees fit.

Reasons

The hearing was held by teleconference. Both parties attended the hearing.

The landlord took possession of the premises on 7 February 2024 following an agreed end date to the tenancy.

The requirements of section 64(1) of the Residential Tenancies Act 1986 are satisfied.

The landlord has applied for rent arrears, a disposal order, refund of the bond, and reimbursement of the filing fee following the end of the tenancy.

How much is owed for rent?

The tenancy ended on 7 February 2024 by agreement. The landlord provided rent records which prove the amount owing at the end of the tenancy amounts to $5,274.29.

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.

Belongings have been left at the premises which the landlord says has delayed the process of re-tenanting the premises.

The tenant stated nothing belonging to her has been left behind; the belongings all belonged to previous flatmates.

The landlord is unable to agree with the tenant on a period for the tenant to collect the goods.

The landlord has applied for the disposal of the goods.

It is not practicable for the landlord to the return the goods to the tenant. The value of the goods is below the cost of storing, transporting and selling them. Therefore the landlord may dispose of the goods. See sections 62(3)(b), 62B(2) and (3) Residential Tenancies Act 1986. Name suppression

The tenant sought name suppression during the hearing. Section 95A (4) of the Residential Tenancies Act 1986 allows the Tribunal to order name suppression to any party “having regard to the interests of the parties and to the public interest”.

The tenant stated that she sought name suppression because of her background and because of the people she has known in the past. She did not want to give particular information around this.

The landlord stated that he considered it important for future landlords and property managers to be able to access information about prospective tenants.

On balance I am not persuaded that the interests of the parties and public in this case is in name suppression being granted. I have not heard any information that persuades me there is any risk at all posed in publishing the names of the parties in relation to this claim, which is a limited claim for rent arrears and disposal of goods.

The tenant’s application for name suppression is not granted.

Because Taranaki Real Estate Property Management Limited As Agent For F & S De Jong has wholly succeeded with the claim I must reimburse the filing fee.
