The tenancy of Kimberlee Grace Webb at Unit/Flat 11, 2C Blanc Road, Silverdale, Silverdale 0932 is terminated, and possession is granted to [The landlord/s], at 11.59pm on Tuesday 27 th May 2025.

Kimberlee Grace Webb must pay [The landlord/s] $654.71 immediately, calculated as shown in the table below: DescriptionLandlord Rent arrears to 27 May 2025$2,675.71 Filing fee reimbursement$27.00 Pest Control$552.00 Total award$3,254.71 Minus Bond-$2,600.00 Total payable by Tenant to Landlord$654.71

The Bond Centre is to pay the bond of $2,600.00 ([Bond number suppressed]) to [The landlord/s] immediately.

Reasons

The landlord attended the hearing, the tenant did not attend. The tenant sent an email to the Tribunal at 8.45am this morning saying she wanted an adjournment and that there was no way she could get to the hearing.

I rang the tenant twice on her mobile number, but she did not answer, and it went to answerphone.

I have checked and she was emailed a notice of hearing on 28 April 2025. That was plenty of time to seek an adjournment if that date was not suitable. I consider the email within an hour of the hearing seeking an adjournment without any explanation, was to stall the proceedings.

Throughout the tenancy the tenant has always been in rent arrears and received 14-day notice to remedy. Given these circumstances, I am proceeding with the hearing in the absence of the tenant.

The landlord has applied for termination of the tenancy, rent arrears, compensation, reimbursement of the filing fee and refund of the bond. Termination:

Rent was at least 21 days in arrears on the date the application was filed. The tenancy is terminated. See section 55(1)(a) Residential Tenancies Act 1986.

The tenancy is to terminate at 11.59pm on Tuesday 27 th May 2025 and possession is granted immediately to the landlord after that. Rent arrears:

The landlord provided rent records which prove the amount of $ 2675.71 owing at the end of the tenancy on 27 th May 2025.

I am satisfied that the landlord has proven their claim for the rent arrears. Pest Control

The landlord seeks to be refunded for the cost of pest control carried out in the property. In March 2025 the landlord carried out a routine inspection and found that the property was infested with cockroaches.

The landlord has engaged the services of pest control services who have attended the property on two occasions to eradicate the cockroaches. The landlord has provided the Tribunal with both invoices dated 3 March 2025 and 28 March 2025. The tenant has been provided with the invoices but has not paid the landlord for the cost of the invoices.

I am satisfied that the landlord has proven their claim for the pest control services. Bond/filing Fee/ suppression:

The Bond Centre is to refund the bond to the landlord immediately to offset the debt owed by the tenant to the landlord.

Because [The applicant/s] has wholly succeeded with the claim I must reimburse the filing fee.

The landlord has applied for suppression of their name and identifying details and as they have been successful, I am granting suppression.
