New Zealand Tenancy Tribunal Case 4990648 — Rent arrears

Tenantcheck Insights

Reasons

Only the landlord attended the hearing which was held in person. The landlord was represented by [property manager]. There was no appearance by the tenant.

I am satisfied that the tenant has been served with the landlord’s application. This is in fact a rehearing granted following a rehearing application filed by the tenant.

The landlord’s filed this application for termination of the tenancy and rent arrears on 5 September 2024.

This matter was originally heard on 5 November 2024. There was no appearance by the tenant. The Tribunal made an orders terminating the tenancy and for rent arrears up to that date. The tenant filed an application for rehearing that day and was granted a rehearing. The tenant was also granted a conditional stay of enforcement on the basis that he continued to pay rent as it fell due.

The matter was then reheard on 28 November 2024. There was no appearance by the tenant. The Tribunal made orders terminating the tenancy and for rent arrears up to that date. The tenant filed an application for a rehearing that day and a rehearing was declined.

The tenant then filed a further application for rehearing on 30 November 2024. That further application was granted but no order was made staying enforcement of the order dated 28 November 2024. In the order granting a rehearing the Tribunal requested that this matter be set down as an in-person hearing to avoid any potential technical issues that might occur if it were held by phone or video link.

At the hearing today the landlord explained that the tenant has not paid any rent since the original hearing on 5 November 2024. The landlord has taken steps to enforce the order dated 28 November 2024 and took back possession of the property on 13 January 2025.

The landlord has already taken steps to enforce the order for rent arrears made on 28 November 2024 (in the amount of $8.815.71).

The landlord provided a rent summary showing that additional rent arrears have accrued in the amount of $4,242.86 since the last hearing (from 29 November 2024 until 12 January 2025 being the date that the landlord took back possession).

The tenant has claimed in correspondence that he has paid rent to the landlord that has not been included in the landlord’s rent summary but has not appeared today to explain the position or to present supporting evidence.

In the circumstances the landlord’s claim is proved. I order additional rent arrears in the amount of $4,242.86.

I have carried over the original suppression orders made on 28 November 2024 suppressing the landlord’s name and identifying details.
