Order

Ben Campbell Johnson owes Crockers Property Management Limited As Agent For Jh And M Buckland Trustee Ltd. $1,876.85 (“the debt”).

A final payment of $856.85, being $780.00 for rent and $76.85 for the debt. c. Payments will be every Sunday, with the first payment on 10/05/2026 and continuing until 13/09/2026.

If the tenant fails to pay rent and debt payment within 2 working days of the due dates: a. The tenancy at 44B Ballarat Street, Ellerslie, Auckland 1051 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 filing fee within 2 working days of the due date, the filing fee will be payable immediately.

Reasons

The landlord attended the remote hearing.
The tenant did not attend the hearing by Teams video link. The Tribunal may hear matters in the absence of a party where satisfied that notice of the hearing has been given. I am satisfied that notice of the hearing was sent to the tenant.
The landlord has applied for termination of the tenancy, rent arrears, water rates arrears and refund 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.
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 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.
As Crockers Property Management Limited As Agent For Jh And M Buckland Trustee Ltd. has wholly succeeded with the claim I must order the tenant to reimburse the filing fee.
