In short
The landlord proposed a new rent of £1550 a month, up from £1485 a month, for a two-bedroom house in W3. The tribunal determined a rent of £1470 a month, effective from 28 November 2024. It made deductions for the kitchen, bathroom, electrics, white goods and the property's condition, and found that the proposed start date would cause the tenant undue hardship.
