Reasons
- The landlord attended the hearing and was represented by Ms Ma. The tenant did not attend the hearing or seek an adjournment. The tenant has been served notice of the hearing in accordance with the Residential Tenancies Act, 1986, (the “RTA”).
- The landlord 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 ended on 29 August 2025. The landlord’s claims totalled $1,748.33, but the landlord said that prior to the hearing the tenants made payments against this total, and as of the hearing date only owes a further $248.33 for outstanding water rates invoices.
- The landlord provided rent records, water rates invoices and invoices for other expenses which prove the amount owing at the end of the tenancy, and the amount outstanding as of today’s date.
- Because the landlord has been wholly successful with their claims, I must reimburse the filing fee.
