Cleanliness Filing Fee Rent arrears

Order

An application for suppression has been made in this case, and the Tribunal orders suppression of the landlord’s name and identifying details and [the guarantor]’s name and identifying details. The agent’s name is not suppressed.
[The tenant/s] must pay [The landlord/s] $4,093.00 immediately, calculated as shown in table below.
This order incorporates the Tribunal order made on 18 July 2024 under application 4918841.

Reasons

The landlord attended the hearing by video call.
The tenant and [the guarantor] were telephoned on the phone numbers provided but the phone calls went unanswered. I am satisfied the respondents were properly served with notice of the hearing. The hearing proceeded in their absence.
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?

The tenancy ended on 11 July 2024. The landlord provided rent records which prove the amount owing at the end of the tenancy. The rent summary shows the bond has been paid to the landlord to offset the rent arrears.

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. See section 40(1)(e)(ii)-(v) Residential Tenancies Act 1986.
The tenant did not leave the premises reasonably clean and tidy and did not remove all rubbish.
The landlord’s evidence was that the carpets needed to be vacuumed and the floors needed mopping and that surfaces were dirty and required cleaning. The oven also required a thorough clean. I therefore order the full amount claimed for cleaning without deduction as the cleaning claim was nominal.
The additional terms and conditions of the agreement state: “That the Tenant accepts and agrees to the re-filling of the gas bottles when they are empty. They are full at the commencement of the tenancy and the Tenant agrees to ensure they are full when they vacate the premises”.
The tenant did not ensure the gas bottle was full at the end of the tenancy and I order the full amount claimed to refill the gas bottle.
The following chattels were missing at the end of the tenancy: a. the rubbish bin inserts. The amount claimed the replace the kitchen bin inserts is ordered.
The landlord provided inspection reports from the start and end of the tenancy, photographs and invoices to support the claim.
The amounts ordered are proved. Previous order
On 18 July 2024 the Tribunal made an order relating to this tenancy for rent arrears and the bond. The previous order is incorporated into this order for enforcement purposes. This order supersedes that order. Guarantor
The landlord claimed [the guarantor] provided a guarantee to the landlord, which undertook that the guarantor would be liable for any breach of the tenant's obligations. The guarantee provisions of the tenancy agreement are not signed and I therefore consider [the guarantor] did not provide a guarantee to the landlord.
I dismiss the claim against [the guarantor] and make an order suppressing her name. Filing fee
Because the landlord has substantially succeeded with the claim, I have reimbursed the filing fee. Suppression
The property manager sought name suppression for the landlord owner and as the application is successful, I have made an order accordingly.
