Order

[The tenant/s] and [The tenant/s] must pay Seddon Street Property Management Limited As The Agent For Rustam Nomozov $2,078.00 immediately, calculated as shown in table below.

Reasons

The landlord attended the hearing held remotely today. I telephoned the tenant however the phone went to voicemail. I continued with the hearing as the tenant has been emailed notice of the hearing date and time to the address for service and sent text reminders.
The landlord has applied for compensation for an insurance excess and cleaning costs following the end of the tenancy.
Tenants must leave premises reasonably clean and tidy, remove all rubbish, return all keys and security devices, and leave all chattels provided for their benefit. Section 40(1)(e)(ii)-(v) Residential Tenancies Act 1986 (RTA).
The tenants did leave some parts of the premises reasonably clean (bench surfaces, shelves, outdoor areas) but more cleaning was needed of floors, shower and toilet, door and wall surfaces.
The cleaning invoice is for $945.00. I reduce this to $550.00 to recognise that the tenants did leave some areas reasonably clean and that the invoice includes work to clean the premises to a higher standard than required from a tenant.
The more significant issue is that the hot water cylinder and connected copper piping was missing at the end of the tenancy.
I was supplied with photos showing the original cylinder, the empty hot water cupboard (the day after the tenancy ended), and the new cylinder.
Evidence included documents proving that a police report was made, an invoice for the cost of replacement, and that there has been an insurance settlement with the landlord for the invoiced cost less an excess of $1,500.00. This excess includes an additional amount of $500.00 for deliberate damage.
I accept it is proven that this chattel was missing at the end of the tenancy and that the landlord has suffered loss of $1,500.00. I award this amount.
The landlord’s claim is successful, so I award the filing fee.
The bond has already been refunded to the landlord by consent.
I make a money order for the amount owing which is $2,078.00.
No suppression orders were sought.
