Order

Clementine Hope Taemanu Toalima must pay [The landlord/s] $3,396.58 immediately, calculated as shown in table below.

Reasons

Only the applicant landlord attended the hearing. The tenant did not join the video meeting and could not be contacted on either her Australian or New Zealand cell phone numbers.
The landlord has applied for rent arrears, compensation and reimbursement of the filing fee following the end of the tenancy.

How much is owed for rent and water rates?

The tenancy was for a fixed term not due to end until January 2025. The tenant requested an early release and the agreement ended on 11 June 2024, when new tenants were found. The landlord provided rent records and water rates invoices which prove the amount owing at the end of the tenancy. The bond has been refunded to the landlord and is deducted from the rent amount awarded.
The actual costs associated with ending the fixed term early are awarded. The landlord explained that it took some time and many viewings to re let the property, and eventually it was relet for $50 per week less rent. The rent loss for 6 months is actual but not claimed. It is reasonable to award the full costs associated with the early end of the contract.

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.

The tenant did not leave the premises reasonably clean and tidy, and did not remove all rubbish.
The tenant did not return the keys.
The amounts ordered are proved by the invoices and photographs provided.
Because [The applicant/s] has wholly succeeded with the claim I must reimburse the filing fee.
