Filing fee reimbursement	$27.00		Filing fee reimbursement

An application for suppression has been made in this case, and the Tribunal orders suppression of the tenant’s name and identifying details.

[The tenant/s] owes Inspire Property Management Limited $397.00 (“the debt”) as calculating in the table below

[The tenant/s] must pay rent and the debt as follows: a. By weekly payments of rent and an additional amount of $30.00 for the debt. b. Payments will be every Saturday, with the first payment on Saturday 28 December 2024 and continuing until .

Payments will be allocated in the following order: rent, rent arrears, and the filing fee.

If the tenant fails to pay rent and rent arrears within 2 working days of the due dates: a. The tenancy at [Tenancy address suppressed] 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.

Reasons

Both parties attended the hearing.

The landlord attended by phone and the tenant’s representative appeared on her behalf.

The landlord has applied for termination of the tenancy, rent arrears and refund of the bond. The tenant wants to repay the debt to avoid immediate termination.

Should a conditional termination order be made?

The Tribunal must terminate a tenancy or make a conditional termination order. 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.

The landlord served notices on the tenant. However, the dates are incorrect and should have referred to the rent not being paid for the 5 working days period prior to the notice being served. I consider the notices do not comply with the RTA. The landlord has also served 14 days notices which I refer to below.

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. 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. See section 56(1) Residential Tenancies Act 1986.

The tenant breached their obligations by failing to pay rent when it is due and payable under the tenancy agreement.

On 24 September 2024 and 11 October 2024, the landlord served 14-day notices on the tenant, but the breach was not remedied within the required period.

However, on hearing from the parties I consider a termination order would not be an equitable outcome.

I am satisfied the tenant will pay the debt within the period specified in the order and is unlikely to commit any further breach. I have granted a conditional termination. See section 78(3) Residential Tenancies Act 1986.

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. Rent arrears

Rent records have been provided which prove the amount owing. Filing fee

Because the landlord has wholly succeeded with the claim I have reimbursed the filing fee. Suppression

In having regards to the interests of the parties and the public interest I have made an order suppressing the tenant’s names and identifying details as this order is made by consent. See section 95A of the Residential Tenancies Act 1986.
