Order

Alisa Jane Neale must pay Brent Keith Walker $2,102.43 immediately, calculated as shown in table below.
The Bond Centre is to pay the bond of $1,240.00 (3294145-019) to Brent Keith Walker immediately.

Reasons

Only the applicant landlord attended the hearing. Ms Neale did not attend at the Taupo District Court and did not answer phone calls to her mobile. Having satisfied itself that she had been properly served, the Tribunal proceeded to hear the application in her absence.
The landlord has applied for rent arrears, compensation, 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 3 May 2024 which is 28 days after Mr Walker discovered that Ms Neale had left the premises without giving notice. The landlord provided rent records which prove the amount owing at the end of the tenancy.

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. The tenant is required to replace worn out smoke alarm batteries during the tenancy. See section 40(1)(ca) Residential Tenancies Act 1986. The tenant must also replace standard light bulbs.
The tenant did not leave the premises reasonably clean and tidy, and did not remove all rubbish. The lawns and gardens were overgrown and strewn with rubbish.
The tenant did not return the keys.
The amounts ordered are proved.
Because Brent Keith Walker has wholly succeeded with the claim I must reimburse the filing fee.
Public interest requires that the order is published without suppression of the tenant’s name. Mr Walker did not seek suppression.
