New Zealand Tenancy Tribunal Case 5453949 — Rent arrears

Q: What was Tenancy Tribunal case 5453949 about?

The tribunal order states: An application for suppression has been made in this case, and the Tribunal

Tenantcheck Insights

Order

An application for suppression has been made in this case, and the Tribunal orders suppression of the landlord’s name and identifying details and the tenancy address.

The tenancy of Linda Nguyen, Nguyen Thi Huong and Tran van Tuan at [Tenancy address suppressed] is terminated, and possession is granted to [The landlord/s], immediately.

Reasons

The application was decided on the papers.

The landlord has applied for termination of the tenancy for abandonment through the expedited process under section 91AA Residential Tenancies Act 1986.

Are there grounds for an expedited application?

I am satisfied that the two requirements for the expedited process are met: a. The tenant does not want to contest the abandonment application. b. The information provided by the landlord with the application is sufficient to enable the Tribunal to determine it properly without a hearing (either on the basis of that information alone or with only minor clarifications).

Should the tenancy be terminated?

The Tribunal may terminate the tenancy where the premises have been abandoned and rent is in arrears at the hearing date. See section 61 Residential Tenancies Act 1986. A tenancy is abandoned where the tenant leaves the premises without reasonable excuse, not intending to return or to meet their obligations, and fails to notify the landlord.

On 10 February 2026 the landlord became aware (or ought to have been aware) that the tenant had abandoned the premises. The landlord said they have had difficulties getting any response from the tenants from multiple texts and calls to the tenants. They provided copies of texts between the parties about rent arrears. The landlord inspected the property on 21 February 2026 and found the property abandoned, empty, damaged and with signs of illegal activity. The landlord then called the police. The landlord provided photographs of the condition of the property at the inspection, which showed empty rooms and cupboards throughout the property, multiple power cords coming down from the ceiling and black plastic bags, a door removed and damaged carpet. I am persuaded by this evidence that the tenancy has been abandoned.

The tenants have not contested the claim.

The landlord provided rent records which show there were arrears at the date of filing the application.

All the requirements for an expedited abandonment application have been met. Because the premises have been abandoned, and rent is in arrears, I am terminating the tenancy immediately. Suppression

The landlord requested name suppression, which they are entitled to, as they have been successful with the claim. Therefore, I order that the landlord’s name and identifying details and the tenancy address are not to be published. See section 95A(1) Residential Tenancies Act 1986.
