新西兰房东信函模板:你真正需要的每一份通知
请问您正在以什么身份阅读:
新西兰房东的文书工作大致可归为一份清单:租约、押金登记、加租与检查通知、整改通知,以及欠租记录。每一项在 1986 年《住宅租赁法》下都有法定内容与通知期要求,写得再好,只要这两点出错,通知就无法强制执行。
自主管理您的租房?
先在真实数据上看看 RentManager - 无需注册,无需设置。
如果你在新西兰自管出租房产,同样的信函你会一遍遍地发:加租通知、检查前的进入通知、欠租提醒、租约结束时的终止通知。每一种在 1986 年《住宅租赁法》下都有具体的法律要求,措辞或通知期出错就可能使通知无效,意味着一切从头再来。
本页汇总了新西兰自管房东需要的每一封标准信函,附上正确的法定通知期、必备内容,以及可以复制取用的模板。对每一封信,RentManager 都会依据你的租约记录预先填好,并在 CRM 记录中保留一份带时间戳的副本,让你不必重打,也在需要时留有书面凭证。
关于下列信函模板的说明:正文刻意保留英文。这些是依据 1986 年《住宅租赁法》向租客送达的法律通知,若以租客可能无法阅读的语言送达,反而会削弱其效力。下方的解释、法律要求与使用时机均已翻译,信函本身请照原文使用。
1. 加租通知
法律要求: 提前 60 天书面通知,每 12 个月最多加租一次(1986 年《住宅租赁法》第 24 条)。通知必须写明新的租金金额及生效日期。常见误解:加租并不需要 90 天,该数字适用于周期性租约的无理由终止。正确期限是 60 天。
何时使用: 任何你想上调周期性或固定期限租约租金的时候(注意:固定期限租约只有在协议包含租金复审条款时才能加租)。
[DATE] To: [TENANT FULL NAME(S)] Property: [PROPERTY ADDRESS] Dear [TENANT FIRST NAME(S)],
I am writing to give you notice that the rent for the above property will increase from [CURRENT WEEKLY RENT] per week to [NEW WEEKLY RENT] per week, effective from [EFFECTIVE DATE - must be at least 60 days from the date of this notice].
This notice is given under section 24 of the Residential Tenancies Act 1986.
If you have any questions about this notice, please contact me.
Yours sincerely,
[LANDLORD NAME] [LANDLORD PHONE / EMAIL]

2. 进入通知(检查或进入房产)
法律要求: 至少提前 48 小时书面通知,且不得提前超过 14 天,时间须在上午 8 点至晚上 7 点之间,每四周不得超过一次(1986 年《住宅租赁法》第 48 条)。通知必须写明进入理由和拟定时间。
何时使用: 在每次例行检查、维修进入或任何其他进入房产之前。
[DATE] To: [TENANT FULL NAME(S)] Property: [PROPERTY ADDRESS] Dear [TENANT FIRST NAME(S)],
I am writing to give you notice that I (or my authorised representative) intend to enter the property at the above address on [DATE OF ENTRY] between [START TIME] and [END TIME].
The reason for entry is: [REASON - e.g. "routine property inspection" / "to carry out maintenance to the kitchen tap" / "to show the property to a prospective tenant"].
This notice is given under section 48 of the Residential Tenancies Act 1986.
Yours sincerely,

3. 欠租通知:初次提醒
法律要求: 初次欠租提醒没有法定格式,但及时发出可以留下书面记录,并在正式升级前给租客一个合理的补缴机会。最佳做法:在欠租第 3 至 5 天发出,再考虑升级为 14 天通知。
何时使用: 租金逾期后的首次联系,在任何正式通知之前。
[DATE] To: [TENANT FULL NAME(S)] Property: [PROPERTY ADDRESS] Dear [TENANT FIRST NAME(S)],
I am writing to let you know that rent of [AMOUNT OVERDUE] for the period [PERIOD - e.g. "2 June 2026 to 8 June 2026"] has not been received.
As of today, your total arrears are [TOTAL ARREARS].
If you have already made payment, please disregard this notice. If you are experiencing difficulty, please contact me as soon as possible so we can discuss your situation.
Payment can be made to: Bank account: [ACCOUNT NUMBER] Reference: [PROPERTY ADDRESS or TENANT NAME]
Yours sincerely,
[LANDLORD NAME] [LANDLORD PHONE / EMAIL]

4. 欠租通知:14 天正式通知(持续欠租)
法律要求: 根据 1986 年《住宅租赁法》第 55 条,若租金逾期 21 天或以上,你可向租务法庭申请终止租约。在此之前,你必须已就欠租向租客发出书面通知。此外,第 55A 条针对「持续欠租」(90 天内三次或以上)。实务上,一份措辞清晰、载明还款要求的书面通知,是任何法庭申请的基础。
何时使用: 当初次提醒未能解决欠租,而你正在考虑采取法庭行动时,或当欠租金额已影响你偿还贷款或支付房产开支的能力时。
[DATE] To: [TENANT FULL NAME(S)] Property: [PROPERTY ADDRESS]

This notice is given under the Residential Tenancies Act 1986.

5. 终止租约通知:90 天无理由(周期性租约)
法律要求: 周期性租约需提前 90 天书面通知,无需理由(1986 年《住宅租赁法》第 51(1) 条,经 2024 年《住宅租赁修正法》修订,自 2025 年 1 月 30 日起生效)。仅适用于周期性租约:固定期限租约不能以此方式在到期日之前终止。
何时使用: 当你希望在没有特定理由的情况下结束周期性租约时,例如你要出售房产、改变用途,或希望结束这一安排。
[DATE] To: [TENANT FULL NAME(S)] Property: [PROPERTY ADDRESS]
NOTICE OF TERMINATION OF TENANCY

6. 押金退还说明函
法律要求: 自 2026 年 6 月 29 日起,押金退还必须通过租务服务局 Bond Hub 或已对接的软件提交,纸质表格不再受理。房东必须说明任何扣款,且双方(或凭租务法庭裁定)须达成一致。
何时使用: 当租约结束、你要发起押金退还时,无论是全额、部分退还,还是就欠租、损坏或清洁扣留一部分。
[DATE] To: [TENANT FULL NAME(S)] Property: [PROPERTY ADDRESS] Bond Reference: [BN-XXXXXXXX] Dear [TENANT FIRST NAME(S)],
I am writing regarding the refund of the bond held for [PROPERTY ADDRESS].

7. 租务法庭:欠租申请材料包
法律要求: 若要向租务法庭申请付款令(或因欠租终止租约),你需要:一份填妥的申请表(可向租务服务局索取)、一份按期列示欠款金额的租金明细,以及你已就欠租以书面通知租客的证据。
何时使用: 当书面通知与直接沟通仍未解决欠租,而你已准备好向租务法庭提出申请时。

8. 租约
The tenancy agreement is the most important document in the landlord-tenant relationship. Under NZ law, you are not required to use a specific form, but the agreement must contain the required terms under s.13A of the RTA 1986. The most commonly used template is the Tenancy Services standard form available at tenancy.govt.nz.
Key required clauses:
- Names and contact details of all parties
- Property address
- Start date and type (periodic or fixed-term; if fixed-term, the end date)
- Weekly rent and due date
- Bond amount (if any)
- Landlord's contact details and address for service of notices
- Signature of both parties
Optional but strongly recommended:
- Pet clause (permitting or prohibiting pets; pet bond from 1 December 2025)
- Smoking clause
- Maximum number of occupants
- Water meter number (required if you intend to on-charge metered water)
- Current healthy homes compliance status

Drop your PDF (or a photo of the paper original) at rentmanager.nz/upload-agreement - RentManager reads it, extracts the tenant names, address, rent, bond, and dates, and seeds your account fully populated. No re-typing. rentmanager.nz/upload-agreement

为什么只有模板还不够?
A template gets you the right words. What it does not do is:
- Check the notice period is correct for your tenancy type
- Remind you when rent increases are due (you can only increase once every 12 months)
- Keep a timestamped record of every notice you sent
- Pre-fill the tenant name, property address, arrears figures, and bond reference
- Email the tenant and log the communication in one step
That is the difference between a template and a system. RentManager is built around the prepare-and-approve model: we prepare the document from your tenancy data, you review and approve. Most landlords send each of these letters from scratch - retyping the same address, looking up the rent amount, calculating the arrears manually. With RentManager, each letter takes about 30 seconds.
