Reasons

Only the landlord attended the hearing. I placed a call to the mobile number provided for the tenant but the call went unanswered. I am satisfied that the tenant has been served with the landlord’s application in accordance with the relevant provisions of the Residential Tenancies Act 1986 (RTA) and so the hearing proceeded in the tenant’s absence.
This tenancy began on 11 April 2025. Rent is $480 per week.
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. No further rent has been paid since that date. The tenancy is terminated. See section 55(1)(a) Residential Tenancies Act 1986.
The landlord provided rent records which prove the amount owing at the end of the tenancy. These prove that rent is in arrears in the amount of $2,880 to today’s date.
As there are children living in the property the landlord has not sought immediate termination but has instead allowed the tenant one week to vacate. The tenant should drop the keys off to the landlord’s offices at 12pm on the possession date (17 September 2026). Filing fee and name suppression
As the landlord has been wholly successful I have reimbursed the filing fee. The landlord also sought, and is entitled to, an order for name suppression (see section 95A RTA).
