On 30 July 2025, the landlord applied for termination of the tenancy, rent arrears, refund of the bond, compensation for the unauthorised use of staging furniture and reimbursement of the filing fee.

At the hearing, the landlord withdrew their claim for compensation for the unauthorised use of staging furniture.

The onus of proving these claims rests with the landlord. The standard required is on the balance of probabilities. The landlord must establish more likely than not that the tenant has breached the terms of the agreement or provisions of the Residential Tenancies Act 1986 (the “Act”). Rent arrears, termination and possession

Under section 55(1) of the Act, the Tribunal must, subject to subsection 55(2) terminate the tenancy, if at the time the application was filed, the rent was at least 21 days in arrears.

The application was filed on 30 July 2025. At that time, the tenant’s rent arrears totalled $2,295.71. The tenants were at least 21 days in arrears.

The landlord provided up to date rent records which were not disputed by the tenants. At the date of hearing the tenant’s rent arrears totalled $2,701.00. The amount claimed is awarded.

The parties agreed the tenants would vacate the property by midnight on Friday 19 September 2025. The tenancy is terminated at midnight on Friday 19 September 2025. Payment of debt

The parties have agreed that the remaining debt will be repaid by the tenants at the rate of $120.00 per week commencing on Wednesday 24 September 2025 and payments must continue every Wednesday until the debt is paid in full.

If the tenant fails to make any payment within two working days of the due date, the balance of the debt owing will be payable immediately and can be enforced through the District Court. Costs

Because [The applicant/s] has wholly succeeded with the claim I must reimburse the filing fee. Name suppression

Section 95A of Act provides that on the application of a party that has been wholly or substantially successful in proceedings, the Tribunal must order that the name or identifying particulars not be published, unless the Tribunal considers that it is in the public interest to publish the names of the parties, or is justified because of the parties’ conduct, or any other circumstances of the case.

The landlord has been wholly successful and is granted name suppression.
