Order
- The tenancy of Naarah Kylie Tania Kapa at 39 Harris Street, Huntly, Huntly 3700 is terminated, and possession is granted to Arrow Property Management Limited As Agent For Heith Cheesman, at 11.59pm on Wednesday 22 April 2026.
- The Bond Centre is to pay $2,128.00 from the bond of $2,380.00 (BN- 25087929) to Arrow Property Management Limited As Agent For Heith Cheesman immediately calculated as shown in the table below.
- The balance of the bond of $252.00 is to remain at the Bond Centre.
Reasons
- Both parties attended the hearing – the landlord by video conference and the tenant by telephone.
- The landlord has applied for termination of the tenancy, rent arrears, reimbursement of the filing fee and payment from the bond.
- Rent was at least 21 days in arrears on the date the application was filed and continues to be more than 21 days in arrears. The Tribunal must therefore terminate the tenancy - see section 55(1)(a) Residential Tenancies Act 1986.
- The landlord provided rent records which prove the amount owing as at today’s date - $2,100.00. This amount includes a rent payment of $450.00 today.
- I am also ordering the tenant to reimburse the filing fee to the landlord because the landlord was wholly successful with the claim against her. C ter Haar 22 April 2026
