Order
- Surendra Sharma And Monica Sharma For The Sharma Family Trust is granted possession of the premises at Room 16, 24 Ascot Avenue, Remuera, Auckland 1050 immediately.
Reasons
- Mr James for the landlord attended the hearing, which was held remotely. The tenant did not join the hearing by telephone or video through the links provided in the notice of hearing. The tenant was called at the start of the hearing on the phone number recorded in the application but did not answer the call.
- The landlord has applied for possession of the premises following the termination of the tenancy. The landlord withdrew the rent arrears application at the hearing.
- The tenancy is a boarding house tenancy.
- The tenancy ended as a result of the landlord giving the tenant a 28-day notice terminating the tenancy on 20 February 2026, which is less than 90 days ago. The requirements of section 64(1) of the Residential Tenancies Act 1986 are satisfied. The landlord is entitled to be granted possession of the premises.
