New Zealand Tenancy Tribunal Case 4747650 — Tenancy dispute

Tenantcheck Insights

Reasons

The landlord has applied for termination of the tenancy for abandonment through the expedited process under section 91AA Residential Tenancies Act 1986.

Are there grounds for an expedited application?

I am satisfied that the two requirements for the expedited process are met: a. The tenant does not want to contest the abandonment application. b. The information provided by the landlord with the application is sufficient to enable the Tribunal to determine it properly without a hearing (either on the basis of that information alone or with only minor clarifications).

Should the tenancy be terminated?

The Tribunal may terminate the tenancy where the premises have been abandoned and rent is in arrears at the hearing date. See section 61 Residential Tenancies Act 1986. A tenancy is abandoned where the tenant leaves the premises without reasonable excuse, not intending to return or to meet their obligations, and fails to notify the landlord.

On 12 November 2023, the landlord became aware (or ought to have been aware) that the tenant had abandoned the premises. On 9 November 2023, the landlord notified the tenant that some builders would be entering on 12 November to carry out repair work. On 12 November, the builders entered and noted that the premises appeared to be abandoned as doors were unlocked and most of the furniture was missing. Some personal belongings (mostly clothing) have been left behind (photographs provided). On 13 November, the landlord spoke with the tenant’s advocate at the local Health Centre who advised it is likely the tenant has moved out as she has been accepted for another rental property. The landlord has made attempts to contact the tenant without success.

The landlord provided rent records which show that rent is in arrears and was last paid on 31 October.

Because the premises have been abandoned, and rent is in arrears, I am terminating the tenancy immediately.

All the requirements for an expedited abandonment application have been met and the application is granted.
