Filing Fee

Order

The tenancy of Pati Peka Ah Chee at 5 Nearco Street, Randwick Park, Auckland 2105 is terminated, and possession is granted to Auckland Property Management Solutions Limited, at midnight on Thursday 27 February 2025.
The Bond Centre is to pay the bond of $1,350.00 (5706046-002) to Auckland Property Management Solutions Limited immediately.
Pati Peka Ah Chee and Tulili Taufua must pay Auckland Property Management Solutions Limited $1,917.05 immediately for a replacement oven, and $27.00 immediately for the filing fee, calculated as shown in the table below.
Pati Peka Ah Chee must pay Auckland Property Management Solutions Limited $9,750.00 immediately for rent arrears, calculated as shown in the table below.

Reasons

The landlord and the second-named tenant attended the telephone hearing today. Calls to the other tenant went to voicemail.
The landlord has applied for termination of the tenancy for breach of the tenant’s obligations, rent arrears, refund of the bond, and compensation.
The second tenant has withdrawn from the tenancy. The landlord confirmed that there is no claim against her for rent arrears.
Where a landlord applies to terminate for breach, and rent is at least 21 days in arrears on the hearing date, the Tribunal must terminate the tenancy (sections 55 and 56(2) of the Residential Tenancies Act 1986).
The rent arrears are significant, being equivalent to 15 weeks rent (the weekly rent is $650.00). No payments have been made since November last year. It is appropriate to terminate the tenancy.
The landlord provided rent records which prove the amount owing at the end of the tenancy.
The oven was damaged during the joint tenancy and had to be replaced. The oven was about a year old. It was replaced with the same model. The oven had been damaged by pests nesting inside and was not covered by the warranty or insurance.
The second tenant did not dispute liability for the cost of a replacement oven. I find that the oven was damaged by the tenants, and they are jointly liable for the replacement cost, which is less than 4 weeks’ rent (section 49B of the Residential Tenancies Act 1986).
I have applied the bond towards the rent arrears on the basis that the landlord is entitled to apply the security afforded by the bond towards obligations due under the continuing sole tenancy.
The application has succeeded. I award the filing fee to the landlord. An order having been made against both tenants, I consider they are jointly liable for this fee.
