Order

[The tenant/s] and [The tenant/s] must pay Pro Edge Property Management Limited As Agent For Jasprit Singh & Parwinder Kaur $826.41 immediately, being water rates arrears to 26 March 2026.

Reasons

The Landlord attended the hearing. The Tenants did not appear.
The landlord has applied for termination of the tenancy for breach of the tenant’s obligations, water rates arrears and reimbursement of the filing fee.

Should the tenancy be terminated?

The Tribunal may terminate a tenancy for breach where, due to the nature or extent of the breach, it would be inequitable to refuse to terminate. See section 56(1) Residential Tenancies Act 1986.
Where the breach is capable of remedy the landlord must first serve a notice on the tenant requiring them to remedy the breach within at least 14 days and establish that the tenant has failed to do so.
The tenant has breached their obligations by failing to pay the water rates when they were due.
The landlord served a notice on the tenant on 12 January 2026.
Section 56(1) RTA states: On an application made to it under this section by the landlord or the tenant, the Tribunal may make an order terminating the tenancy if the Tribunal is satisfied that (b) in the case of a breach capable of remedy,— (i)The applicant gave to the other party a notice specifying the nature of the breach complained of and requiring the other party to remedy the breach within a reasonable period, being not less than 14 days commencing with the day on which the notice was given; and (ii)the other party failed to remedy the default within the required period; and
In considering the evidence, the notice issued by the Landlord to the Tenant on 12 January 2026 did not comply with the requirements of section 56(1) of the Residential Tenancies Act 1986. The notice did not inform the Tenant that they were required to remedy the breach within a reasonable period. Instead, it required payment of the full amount within 72 hours and indicated that failure to do so would result in an application to the Tribunal.
This does not meet the statutory requirement. It is essential that a notice of this kind clearly provides the Tenant with at least 14 days to remedy the breach.
For this reason, the application for termination is dismissed.
The landlord has applied for water rates arrears and has provided records which prove the amount owing since the last Tribunal Order was made on 9 October 2025 for water rates arrears.
As Pro Edge Property Management Limited As Agent For Jasprit Singh & Parwinder Kaur has been substantially successful with the claim, the Tenant must reimburse the filing fee.
