The Bond Centre is to pay the bond of $1,760.00 (6034919-012) to Sunrise Property Management and Services Limited as Agent for Xd Dai immediately.

Reasons

The landlord attended the hearing, the tenant did not attend.
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 27 February 2023. The landlord provided rent records which prove the amount of $2451.43 owing at the end of the tenancy.
I am satisfied that the landlord has proven their claim for rent arrears.

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 landlord has provided the Tribunal with photographs of the property at the start and end of the tenancy. The exit photos show the property was unclean, the carpet was heavily stained and has cat faeces on it. The house was infested with flees and covered in rubbish inside and outside the property.
The landlord has provided invoices for the remedial work needed to clean and return the property back to its former condition.
The following invoices were provided to the Tribunal: -De-Bug Pest Control dated 22 March 2023 for $150.00 plus a receipt for $56.00 from countdown for a flee bomb. -Cleaning costs from Caiyan Cleaning dated 28 February 2023 for $325.00 - Carpet cleaning invoice from Joycare Professional Cleaning Services dated 20 March 2023 for $1012.00 -Rubbish removal invoice from The Construction Guys dated 21 March 2023 for $1725.00
Given the evidence seen and heard I am satisfied that the invoices are reasonable. The landlord has proven their claims for the compensation costs.
The bond is to be refunded to the landlord immediately to offset the debt owed by the tenant to the landlord.
Because Sunrise Property Management and Services Limited as Agent for Xd Dai has wholly succeeded with the claim I must reimburse the filing fee.
