141 Mangere Road, Otahuhu, Auckland 1062 Tenancy Tribunal Case 5523877 — Tenancy dispute

Tenantcheck Insights

Reasons

The landlord has applied for termination of the tenancy for abandonment through the expedited process under section 91AA of the Residential Tenancies Act 1986 (RTA).

Are there grounds for an expedited application?

I am satisfied that the two requirements for the expedited process are met: a. The tenant does not want to contest the abandonment application; and b. The information provided by the landlord with the application is sufficient to enable the Tribunal to determine it properly without a hearing (either on the basis of that information alone or with only minor clarifications).

Should the tenancy be terminated?

The Tribunal may terminate the tenancy where the premises have been abandoned and rent is in arrears at the hearing date. (See section 61 of the RTA.) A tenancy is abandoned where the tenant leaves the premises without 5523877 2 reasonable excuse, not intending to return or to meet their obligations, and fails to notify the landlord.

On 08 June 2026, the landlord became aware (or ought to have been aware) that the tenant had abandoned the premises. This was the date the landlord carried out an inspection of the premises and noticed that, while a significant amount of the tenant’s belongings remained at the premises, the power had been turned off, the fridge and freezer contained rotten food and the lawns were significantly overgrown. The landlord has provided photographs of that inspection.

The landlord has also provided rent records which prove the amount owing at today’s date.

As the premises have been abandoned, and rent is in arrears, I am terminating the tenancy immediately.

All the requirements for an expedited abandonment application have been met.

If the landlord has further claims against the tenant, the landlord will need to lodge a new claim with the Tribunal and pay the applicable fee.
