Lupe Kavatahi Tupou owes La-iad Khammanivong $20,944.58 (“the debt”), made up as follows: DescriptionLandlord Rent arrears 12 March 2018 to 7 May 2024$20,872.14 Water rates$52.00 Filing fee reimbursement$20.44 Total payable by Tenant to Landlord$20,944.58

A final payment of $20,944.58, for the debt to be paid on or before 8 July 2024. c. Rent payments will be every Wednesday, with the first payment today and continuing until the end of the tenancy.
Weekly Payments will be allocated in the following order: rent, rent arrears, and the filing fee. The lump sum payment will be allocated to the debt.
If the tenant fails to pay rent or debt within 2 working days of the due dates: a. The tenancy at 255 Puhinui Road, Papatoetoe, Auckland 2025 will terminate and the landlord will have immediate possession of the premises. b. The balance of the debt will be payable immediately.
If the tenant fails to pay the filing fee within 2 working days of the due date, the filing fee will be payable immediately.
Order 4 will expire on payment of the debt, in full.

Reasons

Both parties attended the hearing.
The landlord has applied for termination of the tenancy, rent arrears, water rates and refund of the bond. The tenant wants to repay the debt to avoid immediate termination.
The tenant accepts that the rent arrears and water rates are owing.
The amounts awarded are proved.
For completeness, I have noted the Limitation Act 2010 applies to the rent arrears accrued more than 6 years before the filing of this claim on 11 March 2024.

Should a conditional termination order be made?

Where rent is at least 21 days in arrears on the date the application was filed, the Tribunal must make either a final or a conditional termination order. See section 55(1)(a) and (1A) Residential Tenancies Act 1986.
I am satisfied the tenant will pay the debt within the period specified in the order and is unlikely to commit any further relevant breach. I have granted a conditional termination order. The tenant has made application for payment of KiwiSaver funds to allow repayment of the debt. The landlord consents to this order being condition on the payment for the full rent arrears on or before 8 July 2024, and the payment of weekly rent in full and on time to avoid further arrears.
The conditional termination order will lapse if it is fully complied with. If the tenant breaches the order, the possession order may be enforced for 90 days from the first breach. See section 64(4)(b) Residential Tenancies Act 1986.
