What happened

Landlord applied to terminate the tenancy and evict the tenants due to non-payment of rent. The landlord claimed the tenants owed rent from April 2023 onwards based on a monthly rent of $1,400, but the adjudicator found the lawful rent was $700 per month.

The ruling

The landlord's application is dismissed. The lawful monthly rent is $700, and the tenants have paid all rent owing based on this amount.
