Reasons

The landlord attended the hearing, conducted via teleconference. The call to the tenant was answered and the person advised the tenant should be called on an alternate number. This number was given and two calls made unsuccessfully and to voicemail. After the first call, 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 went unanswered.
The landlord has applied for rent arrears, compensation, refund of the bond, and reimbursement of the filing fee following the end of the tenancy.
By way of prior mediation and order, the repairs and rubbish were accepted. The tenant disputed the rent arrears, believing the tenancy had ended earlier.

How much is owed for rent?

The tenancy ended on 29 May 2023. The landlord provided rent records which prove the amount owing at the end of the tenancy is as ordered, less the bond which has been released to the landlord already.
The tenant gave a notice to terminate in February 2023 but later withdrew this. The landlord had difficulty tracking down the tenant later as it appears he relocated without notice. The end date was established the date of contact. The landlord declined to seek rent in-lieu of notice. I find the landlord has evidenced the end date of the tenancy as claimed and the rent arrears are ordered.

Did the tenant comply with their obligations at the end of the tenancy?

The landlord sought $1,461.01 for vacated costs. These were not disputed at mediation. I accept the invoiced amounts, as supported by photos and other evidence.
