Order

[The tenant/s] tenant/s] must pay Charlton Property Management Limited As Agent For Lincon Taukolo And [The tenant/s] landlord/s] $5,632.53 immediately, calculated as shown in table below.
The applicant tells me that this tenancy ended on 2 September 2025. They say that a 90-day notice was given, which expired on 8 July 2025. However, the respondent requested an extension because they were experiencing difficulty finding a new property, and 2 September 2025 is when they eventually vacated the premises.
The applicant is seeking $2,599.00 for door and wall repairs, $517.50 for rubbish removal, $1,660.03 for window repairs, and $828.00 for cleaning.

Is the respondent liable for the damage repair invoice and glass reglazing?

Section 40(2)(a) of the Residential Tenancies Act 1986 bars a tenant from causing intentional or careless damage. The exit inspection photographs show holes in the walls and doors extensively throughout the property, and that several panes of glass were broken.
Due to the extensive nature of the damage, I am satisfied that the damage was intentional, and that the tenant is liable for the entirety of the cost. These amounts are awarded.

Is the tenant liable for the cleaning and rubbish removal costs?

Section 40(1)(e)(iii) requires a tenant, at the conclusion of a tenancy, to leave the premises in a reasonably clean and tidy state and to remove all rubbish. The exit inspection photographs establish that the tenant was in breach of this obligation and that the property was well short of the required standard. On this basis, the cleaning and rubbish removal costs are awarded. The filing fee:
Because Charlton Property Management Limited As Agent For Lincon Taukolo And [The tenant/s] landlord/s] has substantially succeeded with the claim I have reimbursed the filing fee. H Ben Fayed 17 December 2025
