Reasons
- Both parties attended the hearing.
- The parties entered into a tenancy agreement for a fixed term ending on 14 June 2026. The tenants have been given notice that the tenancy will not continue past the end of the fixed term. 1
- Rent is in arrears. The landlord has brought an application to terminate the tenancy.
- The landlord is entitled to a termination Order because the rent is more than 21 days behind at the date of the hearing. 2 The landlord has provided rent records which prove the amount owing.
- It is reasonable to allow the tenants to remain in the tenancy until the current termination date, but only on terms that prevent the arrears increasing in the meantime.
- A conditional termination Order is made accordingly.
- Because Wolfbrook Property Management Limited as Agent for Road Metals Holdings Limited has succeeded with the claim I must reimburse the filing fee.
