Order

An application for suppression has been made in this case, and the Tribunal orders suppression of the landlord’s name and identifying details.
The tenancy of Te-Rau-Oriwa Ngapuhi at [Tenancy address suppressed] is terminated, and possession is granted to [The landlord/s], at 11:59pm on 17 February 2025.
Te-Rau-Oriwa Ngapuhi owes [The landlord/s] $557.34 immediately, as calculated in the table below:
The Bond Centre is to pay $557.34 from the bond of $$2,120.00 ([Bond number suppressed]) $557.34 ([Bond number suppressed]) to [The landlord/s] immediately.
The balance of the bond of $1,562.66 is to remain at the Bond Centre.

Reasons

Both parties attended the hearing.
The landlord has applied for termination of the tenancy and rent arrears.

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.
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. The notices were sent to the tenant on 1 October 2024, 25 November 2024 and 4 December 2024, and the application to the Tribunal was made on 13 December 2024.
The grounds have been established and the tenancy must be terminated. Rent records have been provided which prove the remaining amount owing of $154.14 to 30 January 2025, as ordered above.
The landlord has also provided invoices for damage to walls and a broken bedroom window totalling $676.20. The tenant has made payments towards these, and the remaining outstanding is $376.20.
The possession date has been set for 17 February 2025 to allow the tenant sufficient time to secure another property. The tenant remains liable for rent until the day they leave the tenancy address.
Because [The applicant/s] has wholly succeeded with the claim I must reimburse the filing fee. R Harvey-Lane 30 January 2025
