Order

An application for suppression has been made in this case, and the Tribunal orders suppression of the parties’ names and identifying details.
The tenancy of [The tenant/s] at [Tenancy address suppressed] is terminated, and possession is granted to [The landlord/s], at 11:59pm on Tuesday, 15 September 2026.
The Bond Centre is to pay the bond of $6,000.00 ([Bond number suppressed]) to [The landlord/s] immediately.
[The tenant/s] must pay [The landlord/s] $2,635.14 immediately, calculated as shown in the table below: DescriptionLandlord Rent arrears (to 25 August 2026)$8,607.14 Filing fee reimbursement$28.00 Total award$8,635.14 Bond$6,000.00 Total payable by Tenant to Landlord$2,635.14

Reasons

Both parties attended the hearing.
The landlord has applied for termination of the tenancy, rent arrears and refund of the bond.
Rent was at least 21 days in arrears on the date the application was filed. The tenancy is terminated at 11:59pm on Tuesday, 15 September 2026. See section 55(1)(a) Residential Tenancies Act 1986.
The landlord provided rent records which prove the amount owing at the date of hearing.
The landlord requested a conditional termination order, on the basis that the tenants paid the arrears in full within 2 weeks. The tenants accepted the debt but said that they cannot pay the arrears within that timeframe and that the weekly rent of $1,500 is not affordable. There was no basis for me to make a conditional termination order.
I discussed a termination date with the parties. The landlord was prepared to grant some time for the tenants to vacate. I consider that appropriate, having regard to the health needs of one of the tenants. I have allowed 21 days. The tenants are required to pay current weekly rent until the tenancy ends.
As the landlord was the successful party, I have awarded reimbursement of the Tribunal application fee and granted its request for suppression of its details. I have also suppressed the tenant’s details having regard to health issues.
