Cleanliness Filing Fee Rent arrears Rubbish Removal Water Rates

Order

[The tenant/s] must pay Abode Property Management Limited $14,839.33 immediately, calculated as shown in table below.
This order incorporates the Tribunal order made on 26 February 2026 under application 5440261

Reasons

The tenant failed to attend the hearing. This does not prevent me from hearing and determining the case.
The landlord has applied for further rent arrears, compensation, and an order to incorporate the previous tenancy order and reimbursement of the filing fee following the end of the tenancy.

How much is owed for rent?

The previous order provided for rent arears up to 27 February 2026. The tenant remained for a further 2.4 weeks. The landlord claims rent for that period of time.
The landlord also confirmed the amount of the water rates that remained outstanding at the time the tenant moved out.

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

At the end of the tenancy the tenant must leave the premises reasonably clean and tidy, remove all rubbish, return all keys and security devices, and leave all chattels provided for their benefit. See section 40(1)(e)(ii)-(v) Residential Tenancies Act 1986. The tenant is required to replace worn out smoke alarm batteries during the tenancy. See section 40(1)(ca) Residential Tenancies Act 1986. The tenant must also replace standard light bulbs.
The tenant did not leave the premises reasonably clean and tidy, and did not remove all rubbish.
Several opportunities were given to the tenant to remove their belongings.
The rubbish removal costs, and cleaning costs are proven.
On 26 February 2026 the Tribunal made an order relating to this tenancy, for rent arrears to 27 February 2026. This took into consideration the bond that was refunded to the landlord. The previous order is incorporated into this order for enforcement purposes.
Because Abode Property Management Limited has wholly succeeded with the claim I must reimburse the filing fee.
