The new rent takes effect from 2 September 2026.

In short

The landlord proposed a rent of £1,800 per calendar month, up from £1,200 per calendar month, for a two-bedroom maisonette in TW1. The tribunal determined the market rent at £1,800 per calendar month, starting on 2 September 2026 rather than 1 June 2026, because the increase would cause the tenant undue hardship. It started from £2,000 per calendar month based on the landlord's comparables, preferring the one nearest the property, then deducted about 10% for poor decoration and worn floor coverings.
