Reasons

The landlord and property manager attended the phone hearing.

[Tenant 1], [Tenant 2] and [Tenant 3] attended the hearing by phone from the office of the property manager. Claims

The landlord has applied for: a. termination of the tenancy, b. rent arrears, c. payment of the bond, d. reimbursement of the filing fee. Service

This matter was adjourned on 2 July 2025 by way of a Tribunal order that added all the tenants to the application and directed further service occur.

Mr Velasco did not answer the phone call to attend the hearing but was served by post and an email address the landlord advised had been provided as an address for service. I understand he is overseas.

[Tenant 4] was served by post and contacted the Tribunal to acknowledge service of the application and provided his phone number. [Tenant 4] did not answer the phone call to attend the hearing.

The hearing proceeded in absence of Mr Velasco and [Tenant 4]. 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. Rent arrears

The landlord provided rent records which prove the amount owing at the end of the tenancy.

The landlord sought an order that only Mr Velasco pay the rent arrears. Bond

The bond is to be paid to the landlord immediately to offset the rent arrears. Filing fee

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

The landlord did not seek name suppression.

Section 95A of the RTA says “The Tribunal may, on the application of any party to proceedings or on its own initiative, having regard to the interests of the parties and to the public interest, order that all or part of the evidence given or the name or any identifying particulars of any witness or party not be published.”

[Tenant 2] sought name suppression.

In having regards to the public interest and the circumstances of this case, on my own initiative, I grant name suppression to the tenant’s excluding Oliver Velasco.
