Filing Fee Rent arrears Water Rates

Order

[The tenant/s] owes The Rent Shop Limited $3,086.02 (“the debt”) as calculated in the table below.
[The tenant/s] must pay rent and the debt as follows: a. By making weekly payments of $840.00, being $740.00 for rent and $100.00 for the debt. b. Payments will be every Wednesday , with the first payment on or before Wednesday 8 October 2025 and continuing until the whole of the debt is cleared..
Payments will be allocated in the following order: rent, rent arrears, water rates and the filing fee.
If the tenant fails to pay rent and rent arrears within 2 working days of the due dates: a. The tenancy at 236 Mahia Road, Weymouth, Auckland 2103 will terminate and the landlord will have immediate possession of the premises. b. The balance of the debt will be payable immediately.
If the tenant fails to pay the water rates and filing fee within 2 working days of the due date, the water rates and filing fee will be payable immediately.

Reasons

Both parties attended the hearing which was held by teleconference.
The landlord has applied for termination of the tenancy, rent arrears, outstanding water rates, reimbursement of the filing fee and payment of the bond. The tenant wants to repay the debt to avoid immediate termination.

Should a conditional termination order be made?

Where rent is at least 21 days in arrears on the date the application was filed, the Tribunal must make either a final or a conditional termination order. See section 55(1)(a) and (1A) Residential Tenancies Act 1986.
After discussion at today’s hearing, and particularly on hearing that the tenant is to set up an automatic payment, I am satisfied the tenant will pay the debt within the period specified in the order and is unlikely to commit any further relevant breach. I have therefore granted a conditional termination order.
The conditional termination order will lapse if it is fully complied with. If the tenant breaches the order, the possession order may be enforced for 90 days from the first breach. See section 64(4)(b) Residential Tenancies Act 1986.
The rent arrears and water rates owing were proved by the rent record and the water rates invoices.
I note that as well as the rent arrears and water rates, the tenant is required to reimburse the filing fee to the landlord because the landlord was wholly successful with the claim against her. C ter Haar 02 October 2025
