Unit/Flat Flat 25E, 16 Gore Street, Auckland Central, Tenancy Tribunal Case 5313484 — Tenancy dispute

Tenantcheck Insights

Reasons

Both parties attended the hearing.

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 4 July 2025 the landlord became aware (or ought to have been aware) that the tenant had abandoned the premises. The landlord informed the tenant of a routine inspection on 2 July 2025 and at the inspection found unopened mail, including notices issued by the landlord, the power off and no sign of the tenant.

The landlord is a social housing provider who said that they were informed by MSD that the tenant was not residing at the premises. A part screen shot of this email was provided. MSD had paid stopped paying rent on the tenant’s behalf on 5 June 2025.

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

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. The tenancy of Tony Murphy at Unit/Flat Flat 25E, 16 Gore Street, Auckland Central, Auckland 1010, The Oaks is terminated, and possession is granted to [The landlord/s], immediately.

The landlord was successful and name suppression is granted as requested.
