Tenancy Tribunal case 5243755 — Rent arrears at Unit/Flat Flat 1G, 22 Emily Place, Auckland Central,
Decided 19 Jun 2025 · Published 19 Jun 2025 · Application 5243755
- Rent arrears
- Cleanliness
Order
- [The tenant/s] must pay Tuscancity Property Management Limited As Agent For St Gervais Trust $717.00 immediately from the bond, being rent arrears of $690.00 and filing fee of $27.00.
- The Bond Centre is to pay $717.00 from the bond of $2,760.00 (BN-00022389) to Tuscancity Property Management Limited As Agent For St Gervais Trust immediately.
- The balance of the bond of $2,043.00 is to remain at the Bond Centre.
Reasons
- The landlord attended the hearing via teleconference. The call to the tenant went unanswered. She appears to have moved overseas.
- The landlord had applied for termination (s 56 RTA) and for rent arrears. The tenancy has now ended (26 May 2025) so the issue of termination is moot.
- The landlord provided an updated rent summary that establishes the rent arrears total.
- A family member of the tenant has recently been in touch with the landlord and agreed, via email, to further deductions from the bond for cleaning, rubbish removal and locks.
- These deductions can be mutually resolved via a Bond Refund form. If that cannot conclude, a further application may be required.
- Because Tuscancity Property Management Limited As Agent For St Gervais Trust has wholly succeeded with the claim I must reimburse the filing fee.
