Reasons

The applicant attended the hearing. The respondent did not attend by video link or answer the phone.
The landlord has applied for termination of the tenancy for breach of the tenant’s obligations.
The applicant has provided a rent summary showing the amount owing to the 22 nd of September 2025. I am satisfied this record is correct. I have added a further two weeks rent to reflect the amount owing till the termination of the tenancy.

Should the tenancy be terminated?

The Tribunal may terminate a tenancy for breach where, due to the nature or extent of the breach, it would be inequitable to refuse to terminate. See section 56(1) Residential Tenancies Act 1986.
Where the breach is capable of remedy the landlord must first serve a notice on the tenant requiring them to remedy the breach within at least 14 days and establish that the tenant has failed to do so.
The tenant has breached their obligations by failing to pay rent on time.
The landlord served a 14-day notice on the tenant on the 17 th of July 2025, and the tenant did not remedy the breach within the required period.
It would be inequitable to refuse to terminate the tenancy. This is because the landlord is entitled under the RTA 1986 to receive timely payments of rent in advance. According to the rent summary rent has been in arrears 9 times over the course of a 3-month tenancy.
Because Barfoot & Thompson Limited As The Agent For Jiayong Zhang & Xiangmei Xu has wholly succeeded with the claim I must reimburse the filing fee.
