Should the tenancy be terminated?

The landlord applied to terminate the tenancy pursuant to sections 55 and 56 of the Residential Tenancies Act 1986 (“RTA”).

The landlord provided rent records with their application dated 13 March 2025, which showed that rent arrears to 13 March 2025 was $1,041.43. Weekly rent is $590.00. Therefore, rent was not 21 days in arrears on the date the application was filed.

The landlord provided updated rent records for the hearing which prove the amount owing to 12 May 2025, the date of the hearing, is $3,148.57.

The landlord issued a 14-day notice to the tenant dated 11 March 2025, which was not remedied by 25 March 2025, the expiry date of that notice. The landlord claimed the tenant had breached an agreement to pay rent, pursuant to section 56 RTA.

As rent was more than 21 days in arrears at the date of hearing on 12 May 2025, then pursuant to sections 56(2) and 55 RTA, the tenancy is terminated.
