Filing Fee

Order

An application for suppression has been made in this case, and the Tribunal orders suppression of the Landlord name and identifying details.
The tenancy of at is terminated, and possession is granted to , at
59 pm, Thursday ,29 January 2026.
immediately, calculated as shown in the table below:

Reasons

The landlord attended the video hearing, but the tenant did not appear. The hearing continued in their absence.
The landlord has applied for termination of the tenancy and refund of the filling fee.
On the morning of the hearing the tenant paid the rent arrears in full. The landlord confirmed that they still sought termination due to the rent not being paid regularly on time and being unable to rely on regular payments.

Should the tenancy be terminated?

The Tribunal shall terminate a tenancy where: a. on 3 separate occasions within a 90-day period the rent has been at least 5 working days in arrear; and b. on each occasion the landlord gave the tenant written notice advising the tenant of the arrear, the dates for which rent was overdue, the amount or amounts of overdue rent, and the tenant’s right to make an application to the Tribunal challenging the notice; and c. each notice stated how many other notices (if any) the landlord had given the tenant under this paragraph in relation to the same tenancy and 90-day period; and d. the landlord’s application to the Tribunal was made within 28 days after the landlord gave the third notice. See section 55(1)(aa) Residential Tenancies Act 1986.
In this case I find the landlord has served notices on the tenant as required in the Residential Tenancies Act 1986, on 26 September 2025, 3 October 2025 and 14 November 2025. The application to the Tribunal was made within 28 days of the date of the third notice.
The landlord provided a rent summary which showed there were rent arrears in December 2024, January, February, May, June, and July 2025. No rent payments were made from 31 December 2025 until the date of the hearing.
Although the arrears have now been paid in full and the loss has been remedied the rental history shows a pattern of late or no rent payments many times during the tenancy. The tenants did not attend the hearing, and I have no evidence that this pattern will change.
The grounds have been established and the tenancy must be terminated.
Because has wholly succeeded with the claim I must reimburse the filing fee and grant name suppression as requested.
