Order

The tenancy of Fouad Fares, Mohamad Fares, Ranya Hanady and Ahilla Fares at [Tenancy address suppressed] is terminated, and possession is granted to [The landlord/s], at 11.59 am on Monday 6 November 2023.
Fouad Fares, Mohamad Fares, Ranya Hanady and Ahilla Fares must pay [The landlord/s] $3,009.01 immediately, calculated as shown in the table below:

Reasons

Both parties attended this remote teleconference hearing. Ms Fares represented all the tenants.
The landlord has applied for termination of the tenancy for breach of the tenant’s obligations. No application was made for release of the bond.

Should the tenancy be terminated?

The Tribunal may terminate a tenancy for breach where, due to the nature or extent of the breach, it would be inequitable to refuse to terminate. See section 56(1) Residential Tenancies Act 1986.
Where the breach is capable of remedy the landlord must first serve a notice on the tenant requiring them to remedy the breach within at least 14 days and establish that the tenant has failed to do so.
The tenant has breached their obligations by not paying the rent in full and on time.
The landlord served a 14-day notice on the tenant on 29 September 2023, and the tenant did not remedy the breach within the required period.
It would be inequitable to refuse to terminate the tenancy because the tenant explained that they are unable to pay the agreed rent. The rent has been in arrears for some time and the tenants explained that they are unable to pay the weekly rent and are unable to make any payments towards the arrears.
The landlord provided rent records which prove that the rent arrears at the end of the tenancy will be $2,988.57.
As [The landlord/s] has wholly succeeded with the claim I must order the tenant to reimburse the filing fee.
Both parties applied for name suppression. The landlord has been wholly successful, and suppression of the landlord details is ordered. The tenant has not been wholly or substantially successful and the application for suppression of the tenant details is dismissed.
