Reasons
- The hearing was conducted remotely on Microsoft Teams.
- Kaixim Huang attended the hearing for the landlord by video.
- The tenants did not attend. The hearing proceeded in their absence.
- The landlord has applied for termination of the tenancy, rent and water arrears, reimbursement of the filing fee, and payment out of the bond.
- Rent was at least 21 days in arrears on the date the landlord filed their application for termination. The Tribunal must therefore terminate the tenancy pursuant to s 55(1)(a) of the Residential Tenancies Act 1986.
- The landlord submitted rent and water records which prove the amounts owing at the end of yesterday. I order the tenants to pay those arrears.
- The tenants must reimburse the landlords for the cost of the filing fee.
- The Tribunal directs the Bond Centre to pay out the bond to the landlord in part payment of the tenants’ debt under this order.
