Order

Niualele Lelei must pay KHMG Investment Management Limited $9,753.81 immediately, calculated as shown in table below.
The Bond Centre is to pay the bond of $2,600.00 (5999614-002) to KHMG Investment Management Limited immediately.

Reasons

The hearing was conducted by telephone.
Henry Lai attended the hearing for the landlord. The tenant attended for himself.
The landlord has applied for rent arrears, compensation, reimbursement of the filing fee, and payment over of the bond following the end of the tenancy on 17 January 2024 by eviction by the bailiffs due to the tenant breaching a Mediator’s Order for conditional termination.

How much is owed for rent and water rates?

The landlord provided rent records and water rates invoices which prove the amounts owing for rent and water at the end of the tenancy.
Orders are made as set out in the table above. Bailiffs’ fee, lock/key replacement, cost of mowing
The landlord enforced the Mediator’s Order by instructing the bailiffs to evict the tenant. The eviction process was open to the landlord to enforce the order upon breach.
The tenant remained in the house despite breaching the condition order and is therefore liable for the bailiffs’ fees.
The landlord’s claim for the cost of changing the locks and keys is allowed because changing the locks is a natural consequence of an enforced conviction.
At the end of the tenancy the tenant must leave the premises reasonably clean and tidy, including the lawns.
The landlord claims the tenant did not leave the lawns reasonably tidy. However, the landlord could not prove the date its photographs were taken, and Mr Lelei insists he did mow the lawns.
The landlord’s claim for the cost of lawn mowing is dismissed. Filing fee
The tenant must reimburse the landlord for one its filing fees because the landlord has substantially succeeded in its claims.
The landlord filed two applications. I do not order reimbursement of the filing fee for the second application because filing a second claim was not necessary in this case. The additional claims could have been added to the first application by giving the Tribunal formal notice and evidence and serving the tenant with the same. The tenant should not have to pay for the cost of an unnecessary application. Bond
The bond is to be paid the landlord to satisfy part of the tenant’s debt to it.
