Order

ADINA MOEARIKI PATANE must pay Kāinga Ora–Homes And Communities $555.85 immediately, calculated as shown in table below but with a landlord credit to be applied first against the debt.

Reasons

The landlord attended the hearing, conducted via teleconference. Two calls to the tenant went unanswered and to voicemail. After the first call went to voicemail, a brief message was left introducing myself and explaining the purpose of the call. The message concluded with the advice I would try a second time after waiting some minutes. I was satisfied adequate service had completed and I continued with the hearing after the second call also went unanswered.
The landlord has applied for compensation, following the end of the tenancy 6 August 2024.

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 did not leave all of the premises reasonably clean and tidy, and did not remove all rubbish. Both omissions were not significant.
The cleaning was required mainly in the kitchen. The cost of $455.85 was supported by photos, including a dirty over. I was satisfied the invoice total was reasonable and it is awarded.
The landlord sought $100.00 towards the rubbish invoiced cost of $454.11. This amount is fair, based on the evidence.
The amounts ordered are proved.
The landlord advised a time payment by the tenant of $10.00 per week has been in place since the tenancy and while unable to confirm the final credit, the expectation is the bulk of this monetary order will be satisfied by that credit. The landlord will confirm to the tenant the situation and any final amount owing shortly.
