62 Old Coach Way, Ramarama, Drury 2579 Tenancy Tribunal Case 5575384 — Rent arrears

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).

The hearing was conducted on the papers in accordance with section 91AB of the 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; 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 reasonable excuse, not intending to return or to meet their obligations, and fails to notify the landlord.

On 30 August 2026, the landlord became aware (or ought to have been aware) that the tenant had abandoned the premises. This was the date that the landlord carried out an inspection of the premises. The landlord has provided photographs taken during that inspection which show that it is more likely than not that the premises have been abandoned.

The landlord has also provided rent records which show that the tenant has been in continuous rent arrears since 15 August 2026.

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 other claims against the tenant, such as rent arrears, the landlord will need to file a new application with the Tribunal.
