Reasons

The landlord attended the hearing by telephone.

The landlord has applied for termination of the tenancy for abandonment, rent arrears and refund of the bond.

Should the tenancy be terminated?

The Tribunal may terminate the tenancy where the premises have been abandoned, and rent is in arrears 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.
On 2 March 2026, the landlord became aware (or ought to have been aware) that the tenant had abandoned the premises. Rent was in arrears and the tenant had to not responded to several requests for payment made by the landlord. She then visited the premises on 2 March 2026. Another person was living there who is not a tenant and he advised the landlord that the tenant had not been there for three weeks.
The landlord conducted an inspection on 30 March 2026, reporting that the other person was still in occupation and the tenant was not there. The landlord believes that items in the photos mostly belonged to the occupant and not the tenant.
Because the premises have been abandoned, and rent is in arrears, the tenancy is terminated immediately.
