Filing Fee Rent arrears

Order

The tenancy of Stacey Leonie Taurua at 82 Young Access, Dairy Flat, Dairy Flat 0992 is terminated, and possession is granted to Wiki Property Management Limited - as agent for Youren Wang, immediately.
Stacey Leonie Taurua must pay Wiki Property Management Limited – as agent for Youren Wang $1,327.00 immediately, as calculated below:
The Bond Centre is to pay the bond of $3,800.00 (6183046-002) to Wiki Property Management Limited - as agent for Youren Wang immediately.

Reasons

Ms Zhou represented the landlord. The tenant did not attend the hearing. I conducted the hearing by phone. My call to the tenant was not answered.
The landlord has applied for termination of the tenancy. Initially, the application was based on rent arrears. The landlord amended the application and has now applied for termination for abandonment, rent arrears, refund of the bond, and the filing fee.
The landlord named a guarantor in the application. However, the signature of the guarantor (a Trust) in the tenancy agreement is the same as the tenant’s signature. I am not satisfied that the trustees of the Trust guaranteed the tenancy in fact. I did not join the guarantor to the hearing.

Should the tenancy be terminated?

The Tribunal may terminate the tenancy where the premises have been abandoned and rent is in arrear at the hearing date. See section 61 Residential Tenancies Act 1986. A tenancy is abandoned where the tenant leaves the premises without reasonable excuse, not intending to return or to meet their obligations, and fails to notify the landlord.
Yesterday, the landlord became aware that the tenant has abandoned the premises. She spoke to another person who has been residing at the premises who confirmed that neither she nor the tenant were living there. The landlord believes that after the tenant signed the tenancy agreement, she never resided at the premises herself.
Because the premises have been abandoned, and rent is in arrear, the tenancy is terminated immediately.

How much does the tenant owe?

The landlord provided rent records which prove the amount of rent owing as of today.
The tenancy is a fixed term tenancy until 13 October 2025. The tenant remains liable for rent until the end of the fixed term or until a new tenancy starts. The Tribunal cannot award rent beyond today’s date. The landlord can make a new application for additional rent when a new tenancy starts.
As the application is successful, the tenant must pay the landlord’s Tribunal filing fee.
The landlord did not seek a name suppression order.
