Reasons
- Only the landlord attended the hearing which was held by video conference.
- There was no appearance by the tenant. I am satisfied that the tenant has been served with the landlord’s application in accordance with the relevant provisions of the Residential Tenancies Act 1986 and so the hearing proceeded in the tenant’s absence.
- The tenancy began on 8 June 2025 and ended on 1 December 2025.
- The landlord produced a rent summary showing that the rent was in arrears in the amount of $2,807.28 at the end of the tenancy.
- Since that date however the tenant has been making regular payments towards the arrears. The rent summary records these amounts. The arrears owing is now $2,307.28.
