An application for suppression has been made in this case, and the Tribunal orders suppression of the parties names and identifying details.

The tenancy of [The tenant/s] at [Tenancy address suppressed] is terminated, and possession is granted to [The landlord/s], at 5.00pm on Wednesday 22 April 2026.

[The tenant/s] must pay [The landlord/s] $9,385.97 immediately, calculated as shown in the table below:

The Bond Centre is to pay the bond of $2,160.00 ([Bond number suppressed]) to Wolfbrook Property Management Limited As Agent For Michael Stowers immediately.

This order incorporates the Tribunal order made on 21 January 2026 under application 5375562.

Reasons

Both parties attended the hearing.

[Tenant 1] appeared on behalf of both tenants.

The landlord has applied for: a. termination of the tenancy, b. rent arrears, c. power costs. d. compensation for carpet cleaning and security fees, e. refund of the bond. Termination

Rent was at least 21 days in arrears on the date the application was filed. The tenancy is terminated. See section 55(1)(a) Residential Tenancies Act 1986.

The order for termination is made by consent. Rent arrears

The landlord provided rent records which prove the amount owing at the end of the tenancy. The rent arrears were undisputed and I have made an order for rent and rent arrears to the termination date. Power, cleaning and unlock costs.

The landlord claimed power costs, carpet cleaning costs and costs for unlocking the premises. Invoices and an invoice statement was provided by the landlord. The tenant agrees with the amounts claimed for invoices. Previous order

On 22 January 2026 the Tribunal made an order relating to this tenancy, for rent arrears to that date and reimbursement of the filing fee. The previous order is incorporated into this order for enforcement purposes. Bond

The bond is to be paid to the landlord immediately to offset the rent arrears. Filing fee

Because the landlord has wholly succeeded with the claim I must reimburse the filing fee. Suppression

The Tribunal must, on the application of a party that has wholly or substantially succeeded in proceedings, order that the party’s name or identifying particulars not be published, unless the Tribunal considers that publication is in the public interest or is justified because of the party’s conduct or any other circumstances of the case. 1

The Tribunal may, on the application of any party to proceedings or on its own initiative, having regard to the interests of the parties and to the public interest, order that all or part of the evidence given or the name or any identifying particulars of any witness or party not be published and may attach any conditions to that order the Tribunal considers appropriate. 2

The landlord sought suppression and as the application is successful, I have made an order accordingly.

The tenant applied for name suppression. I am granting name suppression to the tenant because: a. The tenant has been experiencing serious mental health issues which appears to have impacted the ability to deal with these matters. b. The tenant now consents to all the claims and has agreed to promptly vacate the premises. There is a public interest in parties resolving matters by agreement. c. I acknowledge the public interest where rent arrears are very high, however I consider the tenant’s interests outweigh the public interest.
