Filing Fee Rent arrears

Order

The tenancy of Chylsea Leewes at [Tenancy address suppressed] is terminated, and possession is granted to [The landlord/s], immediately.
Chylsea Leewes must pay [The landlord/s] $5,305.44 immediately, calculated as shown in the table below:
The Bond Centre is to pay the bond of $2,265.00 to [The landlord/s] immediately.

Reasons

Both parties attended the hearing which was held by teleconference.
The landlord has applied for termination of the tenancy, rent arrears and refund of the bond.

Should the tenancy be terminated?

The Tribunal shall terminate a tenancy where: a. on 3 separate occasions within a 90-day period the rent has been at least 5 working days in arrear; and b. on each occasion the landlord gave the tenant written notice advising the tenant of the arrear, the dates for which rent was overdue, the amount or amounts of overdue rent, and the tenant’s right to make an application to the Tribunal challenging the notice; and c. each notice stated how many other notices (if any) the landlord had given the tenant under this paragraph in relation to the same tenancy and 90-day period; and d. the landlord’s application to the Tribunal was made within 28 days after the landlord gave the third notice. See section 55(1)(aa) Residential Tenancies Act 1986.
Where a landlord applies to terminate for breach, and rent is at least 21 days in arrears on the hearing date, the Tribunal must terminate the tenancy. See sections 55 and 56(2) Residential Tenancies Act 1986.
In this case I find the landlord has served notices on the tenant as required in the Residential Tenancies Act 1986, and the application to the Tribunal was made within 28 days of the date of the third notice.
I also find that rent is at least 21 days in arrears at the hearing date.
The grounds have been established and the tenancy must be terminated.
The parties agreed by consent that the landlord will collect the keys from the tenant and carry out an inspection of the premises at 4pm on Wednesday 19 June 2024.

How much does the tenant owe?

The landlord provided rent records which prove the amount owing at the end of the tenancy.
I note both parties, in the background to this matter, referred to fraudulent payments made by a third party. These matters are outside the Tribunal’s jurisdiction and do not have a bearing on the case. I record that the parties have both appropriately taken the matter up further with the NZ Police and Work and Income. Filing fee
As the landlords have wholly succeeded with the claim, I must order the tenant to reimburse the filing fee and grant suppression of the landlords’ names and identifying details.
