Claim	Landlord	Reason
Rent arrears to 11 April 2026	$13,494.00	Rent arrears to 11 April 2026
Net award	$11,294.00

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

The tenant has also requested suppression but the grounds for suppression are not established. 1

The tenancy of Donna Hauraki at [Tenancy address suppressed] is terminated, and possession is granted to [The landlord/s], at 11:59pm on Saturday 25 April 2026.

The Bond Centre is to pay the bond of $2,200.00 ([Bond number suppressed]) to [The landlord/s] immediately.

Donna Hauraki must pay [The landlord/s] $11,294.00 immediately, calculated below:

Donna Hauraki must pay the weekly rent of $550.00 due on Sunday 12 April 2026 and Sunday 19 April 2026. If either of those weekly rent payments is not made within 1 working day of the due date, the tenancy at [Tenancy address suppressed] will terminate and the landlord will have immediate possession of the premises.

Reasons

Both parties attended the hearing, which was held by teleconference. The tenant was supported by her Community Ministries social worker.

The landlord has applied for termination of the tenancy, rent arrears and refund of the bond.

The landlord provided rent records which prove that rent was more than 21 days in arrears on the date the application was filed. At the date of the hearing the rent is 24 weeks behind.

The tenant wants to be able to continue the tenancy.

The Tribunal can make a conditional termination Order rather than an Order ending the tenancy but only where the arrears could be paid within a reasonable period and it is unlikely that there would be further breaches of the tenant’s rent payment obligations.

The amount of the rent debt and the tenant’s financial position make it clear that the arrears could not be paid within a timeframe that could be considered acceptable from the landlord’s point of view. An Order terminating the tenancy must be made. 2

The tenant asks for some time to find somewhere else to stay. It would not be responsible for the Tribunal to allow that, if it meant the arrears might increase in the meantime.

Putting off ending the tenancy to 25 April is therefore conditional on the tenant paying the weekly rent when it is due until then, to protect the landlord against the debt getting worse. 2 S.55(1)(a) and (1A) RTA

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