No rent was set

The application was struck out, so the tribunal did not set a rent. This most often happens when the landlord's notice was invalid or the tribunal had no jurisdiction.

In short

The landlord proposed raising the rent of a property in S12 from £850 a month to £1,000 a month. The tribunal struck out the application and made no rent determination, finding that the landlord's notice was served on 5 July 2026, less than the two months' notice required before the proposed start date of 1 August 2026, so the notice was invalid.
