Cleanliness Filing Fee Property damage Rent arrears

Order

Kyra Chanelle Clark-Nicholson must pay Max Property Management (MPM) Limited and Platinum NZ Enterprises Ltd $828.94 immediately, calculated as shown in table below.
The Bond Centre is to pay the bond of $1,280.00 (6222849-005) to Max Property Management (MPM) Limited As Agent For Platinum NZ Enterprises Ltd immediately.

Reasons

Ms Bayliss attended the hearing. The tenant was phoned on the number provided but the calls went to voicemail.
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 17 October 2024. 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?

The tenant did not leave the premises, including the carpets and a couch, reasonably clean as required by section 40(1)(e)(ii)-(v) Residential Tenancies Act 1986 (the Act).
The amounts ordered are proved by the production of invoices.

Is the tenant responsible for the damage to the premises?

To be successful in a claim for damage to the premises the landlord must prove that the damage occurred during the tenancy and is more than fair wear and tear. If this is established, to avoid liability, the tenant must prove they, or others at the premises with their permission, did not carelessly or intentionally cause or permit the damage: sections 40(2)(a), 41 and 49B of the Act. Where the damage is caused carelessly, and is covered by the landlord's insurance, the tenant's liability is limited to the lesser of the insurance excess or four weeks' rent: section 49B(3)(a) of the Act.
The following damage was caused during the tenancy: burns on the carpets; damage to walls, broken door lock; and broken ranchslider sidelite glass. The damage is more than fair wear and tear, and the tenant has not disproved liability for the damage. The amounts ordered are proved by the production of invoices.
The landlord also claimed the cost to replace the mattress protector and oven tray but those claims were withdrawn by Ms Bayliss at the hearing.
The landlord has been successful in its claims and is therefore entitled to payment of the Tribunal application fee.
