Reasons

On 22 January 2026, the landlord filed an application seeking termination of the tenancy, rent arrears, refund of the bond and reimbursement of the filing fee.

The hearing proceeded by way of video conference. [General Manager], General Manager, appeared for the landlord. The tenant failed to appear. The Tribunal was satisfied the tenant was properly served with the notice of hearing and the case proceeded in her absence.

Should the tenancy be terminated?

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.

Under section 56(1) of the Act, the Tribunal may terminate a tenancy if the tenant has failed to remedy a 14-day breach notice for rent arrears, and it would be inequitable to refuse termination.

Under section 56(2) of the Act, if an application is made under section 56(1) and, at the time of the hearing the rent was at least 21 days in arrears, the Tribunal shall determine the application as if it had been made under section 55(1) and (2) of the Act.

The landlord issued a 14-day breach notice on 7 January 2026 for rent arrears. The notice advised the tenant they were $3,495.00 in rent arrears and required the breach to be remedied by 21 January 2026. The breach was not remedied.

The application was filed on 22 January 2026. At that time, the tenant owed $3,095.58 in rent arrears. Rent was at least 21 days in arrears and the tenancy is terminated.

The landlord seeks possession of the property on Sunday 10 May 2026. It will provide the tenant with time to find alternative accommodation and return the property in a reasonably clean and tidy condition, free from rubbish, without significantly increasing the rent debt.

How much does the tenant owe?

The landlord provided rent records which prove the amount owing at the date of hearing totals $3,594.86. The amount claimed is proved. Other matters

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

The landlord has applied for name suppression. Section 95A(1) of the Residential Tenancies Act 1986 provided that the Tribunal must, on application of a party that has been wholly or substantially successful in proceedings, order that party’s name and identifying particulars not be published, unless the Tribunal considers that publication is in the public interest or is justified because of the party’s conduct or any other circumstances of the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.

The landlord has wholly succeeded with the claim and is therefore granted name suppression.
