Order

The previous Tribunal order application number 5299908 dated 26 August 2025 is incorporated into the terms of this order for enforcement purposes.
Patricia Penney must pay Online Rentals Limited T/A Ray White Hamilton As Agent For Timothy & Monique Neeson $845.77 immediately, calculated as shown in table below.

The Bond Centre is to pay the bond of $1,800.00 (3527667-015) to Online Rentals Limited T/A Ray White Hamilton As Agent For Timothy & Monique Neeson immediately.

Reasons

The landlord attended the hearing. The tenant did not.
The landlord has applied for rent arrears, compensation, refund of the bond, and reimbursement of the filing fee following the end of the tenancy.
As the applicant, the landlord must prove their claim to the civil law standard of proof, on the balance of probabilities.

How much does the tenant owe in rent arrears?

On 26 August 2025, the Tribunal made an order requiring the tenant to pay the landlord $5,578.00. This included rent arrears of $5,500.00 up to 2 September 2025 and the application fee of $28.00. The landlord submitted a rent summary, which proves the tenant has paid $4,050.00 towards the debt, leaving a balance of $1,528.00 owing.
The rent summary also proves the tenant has accrued further rent arrears totalling $714.29 from 3 September 2025 – 5 November 2025.
The Tribunal does not usually incorporate the terms of a previous order into a new order where the previous order is under arrangement however, I have departed from the standard practice in this case. This is because the landlord has submitted clear evidence in the form of a rent summary, which proves the total amount paid by the tenant towards the debt contained in the order dated 26 August 2025. If the terms of the previous order were not incorporated into this order, the bond would be split between the landlord and tenant. This would result in an unjust outcome, because the total amount owed by the tenant exceeds the bond.
For these reasons, the previous order is incorporated into the terms of this order and the landlord’s claim for rent arrears is granted for $714.29.

Did the tenant comply with their obligations at the end of the tenancy?

At the end of the tenancy, the tenant must return the keys and remove all rubbish. 1
The landlord gave evidence that the tenant did not return the keys at the end of the tenancy. I accept the landlord’s evidence. The landlord’s claim for compensation of $129.95 to replace the locks and keys is granted in full. The landlord submitted an invoice for this amount.
The photographs taken at the end of the tenancy prove the tenant did not remove all rubbish. The rubbish bins are full and excess rubbish has been left outside the premises. The landlord’s claim for compensation of $245.53 for rubbish removal is granted in full. The landlord submitted an invoice for this amount. Filing fee
Because Online Rentals Limited T/A Ray White Hamilton As Agent For Timothy & Monique Neeson has wholly succeeded with the claim I must reimburse the filing fee.
