Order

Dylan Organ must pay [The landlord/s] $4,092.01 immediately, calculated as shown in table below.

Reasons

The landlord’s representative attended the hearing today. The tenant did not attend however I continued in his absence as he has been emailed notice of the hearing.
The landlord has applied for rent arrears, compensation, refund of the bond, and reimbursement of the filing fee following the end of the tenancy.
The tenancy ended on 7 March 2024 after the tenants gave notice. The landlord provided rent records which prove the amount owing at the end of the tenancy as $1,154.29.
At the end of a tenancy, a 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 landlord supplied photographs and invoices which prove that the premises were not left reasonably clean and tidy and did not remove all rubbish. Four large trailer loads of rubbish and unwanted belongings were collected from inside and outside and removed.
The tenant did not return the keys, so the locks needed to be changed.
The landlord has also proved that the carpet throughout the house was stained to the point of needing replacement and a pet had been kept inside so flea treatment and stain blocker were needed to protect the new carpet. The new carpet was supplied under the landlord’s insurance policy and only one excess of $550.00 was applied. I award the costs on the invoices supplied.
The landlord has already received the bond of $1,760.00 which is applied to reduce the amount to pay.
[The applicant/s] has wholly succeeded with the claim so I must also reimburse the filing fee and suppress the landlord names, as applied for.
The tenant may be able to avoid further collection costs by contacting the landlord to make a repayment plan.
