Tenantcheck Insights

Order

The tenant’s name and identifying details, including the premises address must not be published.

The landlord must carry out the following work to the premises, which must be completed by 25 December 2023: a. Repair and/or replace the brickwork at the front of the house to a reasonable standard of repair. b. Remediate the garage rain leak.

The landlord must pay the tenant $20.44 for her filing fee.

Reasons

The tenant attended the hearing with her father.

The tenant claims that the landlord has not fixed faulty brickwork in the front walls of the house or a leak into the garage when it rains. The tenant wants the problems fixed.

Under s 45(1)(b) of the Residential Tenancies Act 1986 (RTA), the landlord has an obligation to maintain the premises in a reasonable state of repair. If the Tribunal finds the landlord has failed to comply with any of these obligations, it may make an order for the landlord to carry out the work by virtue of s 78(1)(e) of the RTA.

The Tribunal is satisfied that the landlord has not maintained the premises to a reasonable standard of repair in respect to the brick wall at the front of the house and in respect to rain leaking into the garage. Work orders are required to ensure the landlord meets its obligations to reasonably maintain the premises.

Because the work order is made with the consent of both parties, a monetary order as an alternative to compliance with the work order is not required. Filing fee

Because the tenant has been wholly successful in her claim, the Tribunal must order that the landlord pay the tenant the filing fee paid for the application Non-publication

The Tribunal must, on the application of a party that has wholly or substantially succeeded in proceedings, order that the party’s name or identifying particulars not be published, unless the Tribunal considers that publication is in the public interest or is justified because of the party’s conduct or any other circumstances of the case.

The tenant has wholly succeeded in the proceedings. Publication is not in the public interest or justified by the tenant’s conduct or any other circumstances of the case.

Non-publication is ordered. Addendum

The tenant is concerned that she might be charged for excessive water bills due to the landlord not repairing a leaking water pipe in a timely way. Ms Li assured the Tribunal that the tenant is not expected to pay Watercare’s charges for the excess water lost through the leaking.

This was not the subject of a claim before the Tribunal. The tenant may bring an application to the Tribunal if any problem arises with this situation.
