10 Waterloo Place, Westown, New Plymouth 4310 Tenancy Tribunal Case 5312462 — Tenancy dispute

Tenantcheck Insights

Reasons

The landlord has applied for termination of the tenancy for abandonment through the expedited process under section 91AA Residential Tenancies Act 1986.

Are there grounds for an expedited application?

I am satisfied that the two requirements for the expedited process are met: a. The tenant does not want to contest the abandonment application. b. The information provided by the landlord with the application is sufficient to enable the Tribunal to determine it properly without a hearing (either on the basis of that information alone or with only minor clarifications).

Should the tenancy be terminated?

The Tribunal may terminate the tenancy where the premises have been abandoned and rent is in arrears at the hearing date. See section 61 Residential Tenancies Act 1986. A tenancy is abandoned where the tenant leaves the premises without reasonable excuse, not intending to return or to meet their obligations, and fails to notify the landlord.

On 8July 2025 the landlord became aware (or ought to have been aware) that the tenant had abandoned the premises. The landlord conducted an inspection on this date providing photographs showing the premises empty of all furniture except two couches. Some small appliances and food items were left in the kitchen. Rubbish was left inside and outside the premises.

The landlord provided rent records which prove the amount owing at today’s date.

Evidence was provided of 4 attempts to contact the tenant via text in July and copies of emails requesting rent payments.

Because the premises have been abandoned, and rent is in arrears, I am terminating the tenancy immediately.

All the requirements for an expedited abandonment application have been met. .
