In short

The landlord proposed £1,200 a month for a three-bedroom house in SK5, up from £725 a month. The tribunal determined £1,140 a month from 1 April 2026, valuing the property in good order at £1,200 a month and then deducting £30 each for ceiling staining and garden issues. It gave most weight to the landlord's comparable on the same street and found that undue hardship had not been established.
