RENT ARREARS

The landlord gave the tenant a notice terminating the tenancy. The end date recorded in the notice was 2 February 2025. The landlord gave evidence that the tenant remained in occupation of the premises until 9 February 2025. The landlord seeks rent arrears up to this date of $3,695.71.
Where a tenant remains in occupation of the premises after the tenancy has terminated, all of the obligations of the tenant continue as if the tenancy were subsisting until such time as the tenant vacates the premises. 1
I accept the landlord’s evidence that the tenant remained in occupation of the premises until 9 February 2025. The tenant is liable to pay rent up to this date.
The landlord submitted a rent summary, which proves rent arrears were $3,695.71 up to 9 February 2025. The landlord’s claim for rent arrears is granted in full for this amount. CLEANING, CARPET CLEANING & RUBBISH REMOVAL
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. 2
The landlord submitted photographs of the premises taken at the end of the tenancy. These photographs show food, rubbish, personal and household belongings left at the premises at the end of the tenancy. The premises have not been cleaned and the carpet is heavily stained in some areas.
On the balance of probabilities, I find the tenant did not leave the premises reasonably clean and tidy, and did not remove all rubbish.
The landlord has had the premises cleaned, including the carpet, and rubbish removed at a cost of $1,541.00. The landlord submitted an invoice for this amount.
The landlord’s claim for compensation for cleaning, carpet cleaning and rubbish removal is granted for $1,541.00. 1 Residential Tenancies Act 1986, section 60(1). 2 Residential Tenancies Act 1986, section 40(1)(e)(ii) – (v). FILING FEE & SUPPRESSION
