Order

The tenant seeks suppression of her name and identifying details but the breaches of her tenancy obligations mean that the grounds for suppression are not satisfied (s.95A).
The tenancy of Tui Tulua-Rameka at Unit/Flat 505, 6 Waikumete Road, Glen Eden, Auckland 0602 is terminated, and possession is granted to Home In Place (New Zealand) Limited, immediately.
Tui Tulua-Rameka owes Home In Place (New Zealand) Limited $646.00 (“the debt”), as follows:
By consent, Tui Tulua-Rameka must pay the debt by 3 payments of $215.00 each, on 1 January 2025, 8 January 2025 and 15 January 2025.
If the tenant fails to make any of the payments in Order 4 within 2 working days of the due date, the balance of the debt will be payable immediately.
The Bond Centre is to pay the bond of $608.00 (6401473-002) to the landlord immediately.
The landlord is authorised, with the consent of the tenant, to arrange for: a. any remaining goods and rubbish at the premises to be disposed of; and b. replacement keys to be obtained: the reasonable costs of doing so may be deducted from the bond with any remaining bond to be applied against the debt.

Reasons

Both parties attended the hearing which was held by teleconference.
The landlord has applied for termination of the tenancy, rent arrears and refund of the bond. Termination
The tenant confirms that she has vacated the premises and the tenancy is terminated immediately. Rent Arrears
The landlord applied for termination of the tenancy on 20 November 2024, on the grounds that rent was more than 21 days in arrears.
The landlord was notified by WINZ on 24 October 2024 that the tenant had vacated the premises, but the tenant gave no notification to the landlord and did not return the keys.
Where a landlord applies for termination of a tenancy for abandonment, the tenant’s liability for rent is limited to 28 days from the date on which the landlord became aware (or ought to have been aware) that the tenant had abandoned the premises (see s.61(3)).
Where premises have been abandoned, there is no obligation on the landlord to seek termination on those grounds. Nevertheless, the landlord limits its claim for rent arrears to 21 November 2024, being 28 days from 24 October 2024 when it was advised the tenant had left.
The landlord has provided rent records which prove the amount owing to that date, which the tenant agrees with.
Arrangements for payment of the rent arrears debt, for removal of any remaining items at the premises and for replacement of keys are agreed and appropriate.
Because Home In Place (New Zealand) Limited has succeeded with the claim I must reimburse the filing fee.
