Filing Fee Rent arrears Water Rates

Order

[The tenant/s] must pay Nzpro Property Management Limited As Agent For Justine Dane Tebbens-Lyaazi And [The landlord/s] $6,373.73 immediately, calculated as shown in table below.

Reasons

On 27 November 2025 the landlord filed an application seeking rent arrears, water rates, and reimbursement of the filing fee following the end of the tenancy.
The hearing proceeded by way of video conference. Ms Grace Wu, Property Manager, appeared for the landlord. The tenant did not appear. The Tribunal was satisfied the tenant was properly served with the notice of hearing and the case proceeded in their absence.
The onus of proving these claims rests with the landlord. The standard required is on the balance of probabilities. The landlord must establish more likely than not that the tenant has breached the terms of the agreement or provisions of the Residential Tenancies Act 1986 (the “Act”). Background of the tenancy
The tenancy commenced on 22 March 2025 with the fixed term due to expire on 20 March 2026. The tenant vacated the property on 18 November 2025 after the landlord agreed to an early termination of the tenancy.
The bond was refunded to the landlord on 13 November 2025 and used to offset a portion of the tenant’s rent arrears.

How much is owed for rent and water rates?

The landlord provided up to date rent records which prove the amount owing at the end of the tenancy totalled $5910.71. The amount claimed was ordered.
The landlord seeks $435.02 in outstanding water rated and provided photographs of the water meter taken at the beginning and end of the tenancy, a copy of the local authorities water rates bill, and copies of their own water rates invoices which they say were e-mailed to the tenant’s address for service. The Tribunal finds the water rates were properly demanded and the landlord has proved the amount claimed. Other matters
Because Nzpro Property Management Limited As Agent For Justine Dane Tebbens-Lyaazi And [The landlord/s] has wholly succeeded with the claim I must reimburse the filing fee.
Despite being wholly successful the landlord did not seek name suppression.
