Unit/Flat 5, 150 Hutchinson Avenue, New Lynn, Auckland Tenancy Tribunal Case 5161491 — Rent arrears

Tenantcheck Insights

Order

The tenancy of [The tenant/s] at Unit/Flat 5, 150 Hutchinson Avenue, New Lynn, Auckland 0600 is terminated, and possession is granted to Star Property Management Limited, at 5pm on Sunday 16 th March 2025.

[The tenant/s] must pay Star Property Management Limited $3,327.00, being rent arrears up to and including 16 th March 2025 and the filing fee. This amount will be reduced to reflect the amount of water rates the tenant is owed as at the 16 th March 2025 as that figure is unknown at the time of this hearing.

Any clean up costs and outstanding rent will also be met from the bond. If the bond does not cover the costs and there is a dispute the clean up costs will be the subject of a further Tenancy Tribunal application.

Reasons

The tenant was represented today by Ms McEwan-Waller, her social worker working with her at the Hospital as Ms Collins is currently a mental health inpatient.

The landlord has applied for rent arrears and termination.

Having heard the evidence from both parties I am dealing with this matter in a practical and pragmatic way to be able to assist the parties with their end goal.

Ms Collins is not due to be released from hospital until the 10 th March. The fixed term tenancy ends on the 4 th March. There is agreement for the tenant to be given the opportunity to be released and remove her belongings and clean up the property. She has until 5pm on Sunday the 16 th March 2025 to do this.

The rent owing up to and including that date is $3,300.00. The tenant is also liable for the filing fee for this application. However as at the last water rates reading on the 24 th February she was in credit for $1,407.62. That must be deducted from any costs that the landlord seeks. Given that the exact amount is unknown today and given I am dealing with this on a practical basis, I can not record the amount that will be provided for on the termination date.

It is expected that the tenant will have the property vacated on the 16 th March. If she does not, the landlord is entitled to clean up the property and such reasonable costs will be met by the tenant. Those costs together with the rent arrears and filing fee will be deducted from the bond and any costs over and above the bond will be met by the tenant unless there is dispute, and the matter comes back to the Tribunal.

Because Star Property Management Limited has wholly succeeded with the claim I must reimburse the filing fee.
