Reasons

The landlords attended the hearing by remote teleconference. Attempts were made to contact the tenants on the telephone numbers provided. Both attempts were unsuccessful.

The landlord has applied for termination of the tenancy, rent arrears, refund of the bond and a disposal order.

Rent was at least 21 days in arrears on the date the application was filed. 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. The landlord also provided an updated rent ledger confirming the rent arrears as at the filing date. Having sighted this evidence I am satisfied that the tenants are responsible for this debt.

The landlord has applied for the disposal of goods that the tenant left at the premises at the end of the tenancy.

The landlord: a. agreed on a period for the tenant was to collect the goods, but the tenant failed to collect the goods within that time.

It is not practicable for the landlord to the return the goods to the tenant. Some of the goods have a value above the cost of storing, transporting and selling them. The landlord must sell these goods at a reasonable market price.

The landlord may deduct any amount owing from the sale proceeds, and must pay the balance to the Bond Centre. See sections 62(3)(b), 62B(2),(3) and (4), 62C(1)(b),(2) and (3) Residential Tenancies Act 1986).

The landlord may dispose of any goods that have no saleable value.

Because Brian Richard Smith, Bingzhen Zhao has wholly succeeded with the claim I must reimburse the filing fee.
