The amount owing to the applicant out of the proceeds of any sale is $2,490.88.
Te Ahuru Mowai Limited Partnership must pay the proceeds of any sale, less the amount owing, to the Bond Centre together with a copy of this order.

Reasons

The landlord attended the hearing which was held remotely by teleconference; the tenant did not.
The landlord has applied for termination of the tenancy, rent arrears, a disposal order and refund of the bond.
Section 55(1)(c) of the Residential Tenancies Act states in part: (1) ... the Tribunal shall make an order terminating the tenancy if the Tribunal is satisfied that— .... (c) the tenant has assaulted, or has threatened to assault, or has caused or permitted any person to assault, or to threaten to assault, any of the following persons: .... (v)any neighbour of the premises or of any building of which the premises constitute a part.
The landlord provided information that on 21 January 2024 Mr Tawhiti assaulted a neighbour outside a neighbouring property, resulting in a complaint being made to Police and charges being laid.
Mr Tawhiti was subsequently advised by the landlord that an application would be made to the Tenancy Tribunal seeking termination of his tenancy.
Mr Tawhiti is no longer living at the premises.
On 21 February 2024 a fire occurred at the premises. The landlord stated that Police attended and suggested the cause of the fire looked to be arson.
The landlord has applied for possession of the premises following the termination of the tenancy.
The landlord has applied for the disposal of goods the tenant left at the premises at the end of the tenancy.
The landlord is unable to contact the tenant.
The landlord provided information that current rent arrears to 28 February 2024 is $2,576.44. The amount is proved.
Because Te Ahuru Mowai Limited Partnership has wholly succeeded with the claim I must reimburse the filing fee.
