Filing Fee Rent arrears Rubbish Removal

Order

An application for suppression has been made in this case, and the Tribunal orders suppression of the landlord’s name and identifying details.
Aria Kissling and James Jury Komene-Waenga must pay [The landlord/s] $3,377.94 immediately, calculated as shown in table below.

Reasons

Only the landlord attended the hearing.
The landlord has applied for rent arrears and has provided rent records which prove the amount owing. The landlord already has the bond.

How much is owed for rent?

The tenancy ended on 15 January 20224. The landlord provided rent records which prove the unpaid amount owing at the end of the tenancy, as ordered above.

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

At the end of the tenancy the tenants 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.
The tenants did not leave the premises reasonably clean and tidy and did not remove all rubbish.
Although the corroborating evidence was not as fulsome as the Tribunal generally encounters in claims of this sort, I was satisfied after hearing evidence from the landlord that the amount spent to remove all of the rubbish left behind by the tenants and clean the premises, being $2357.57, was reasonable. This amount is proven.
The landlord described being at the property himself for a few days and described the extent of the mess and rubbish left behind by the tenants, who simply vacated the premises without warning and have not been responsive to his attempts to contact him.
Having to incur the loss of rent and the costs of remedying the tenant’s damage has put him out of pocket and caused significant stress. The landlord has not claimed for the costs he has incurred to remedy the damage caused by the tenants.
The amounts ordered are proved.
Because [The landlord/s] has succeeded with the claim, I have reimbursed the filing fee.
I consider it also appropriate to direct his name suppression, given he has been successful.
