Order

Andy Parker must pay Jk Realty Group Limited as Agent for Gordon Naido $2,225.33 immediately, calculated as shown in table below.
This order incorporates the Tribunal order made on 30 July 2024 under application 4924215.

Reasons

The landlord attended the hearing by video call.
The tenant was telephoned on the phone number provided but the phone call went unanswered. I am satisfied the tenant was properly served with notice of the hearing. The hearing proceeded in his absence.
The landlord has applied for water rates, compensation and reimbursement of the filing fee following the end of the tenancy.

How much is owed for water rates?

The tenancy ended on 26 July 2024.
The landlord provided water rates invoices which prove the amount owing to 6 June 2024 is $108.71 and I make an order for the full amount claimed.

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 and return all keys and security devices. See section 40(1)(e)(ii)-(v) of the RTA.
The RTA does not require the premises to be returned in an immaculate condition, only in a reasonably clean and tidy state.
The tenant did not leave the premises reasonably clean and tidy and did not remove all rubbish. The landlord’s evidence was that that a general clean was required, the carpet, oven and fridge required cleaning and there was rubbish that required removal. The landlord provided photographs and invoices to support the claim.
I have largely reimbursed the landlord’s cleaning costs but made a small deduction as the tenant is only required to ensure they leave the premises in a reasonably tidy condition. The landlord advised that the property was cleaned to a level that it was able to be re-tenanted.
The tenant did not return the swipe key.
The photographs provided by the landlord confirm that a small amount of weeding was required, and I make an order for the amount claimed in full.
The amounts ordered are proved. Previous order
On 30 July 2024 the Tribunal made an order relating to this tenancy, for rent arrears to 26 July 2024, payment of the bond and reimbursement of the filing fee. The previous order is incorporated into this order for enforcement purposes. Filing fee
Because the landlord has wholly succeeded with the claim, I must reimburse the filing fee. Suppression
