Reasons

Both parties attended the hearing. At the start of the hearing the parties advised that they had reached an agreement and that they were seeking a conditional termination.

This order records the party’s agreement.

The landlord has applied for termination of the tenancy, rent arrears and reimbursement of the filing fee. 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. Rent arrears and water bills owing:

The landlord has applied for rent arrears and water bills and has provided rent records and water invoices which prove the amount owing. The rent arrears owed to 16 June 2026 is $3350.00 and water bills are $931.41.

I am satisfied that the landlord has proven their claims for the rent arrears and water bills. The tenants accept that they owe the rent arrears and water bills.

As Blue Fern Property Management Limited as agent for Joseph and Clara Shelia Pinto has been successful in their application, I am reimbursing the filing fee.

The Respondent have applied for suppression of their name and details. As the parties have agreed to this arrangement and the tenants are committed to repaying the rent arrears, water bills and staying in the property, I am granting suppression. There is no public interest in the matter being published.
