Order
- [The tenant/s] tenant/s] and [The tenant/s] tenant/s] owes Crockers Property Management Limited As Agent For Peter Henry Hardcastle As Trustee Of The Elj Daniel Family Trust $2,228.00 (“the debt”) as per the table below.
- [The tenant/s] tenant/s] and [The tenant/s] tenant/s] must pay rent and the debt as follows: a. The weekly rent of $850.00 must be paid on Wednesday 13 May 2026. b. The weekly rent of $850.00 must be paid on Wednesday 20 May 2026. c. The debt of $2,280.00 must be paid in full by Wednesday 20 May 2026.
- If the tenant fails to pay rent and debt within 1 working day of the due dates: a. The tenancy at 32 Winhall Rise, Remuera, Auckland 1050 will terminate and the landlord will have immediate possession of the premises. b. The balance of the debt will be payable immediately.
Reasons
- Both parties attended the hearing via teleconference.
- The landlord has applied for termination of the tenancy, rent arrears and refund of the bond. The tenant wants to repay the debt to avoid immediate termination.
- 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.
- The order includes reimbursement of the $28.00 filing fee payable by the tenant as the landlord has substantially succeeded with the claim.
