132 Jubilee Crescent, Coventry, CV6 3ES

The landlord proposed raising the rent of a two-bedroom flat in CV6 from £675 a month to £725 a month. The tribunal determined a rent of £725 per calendar month from 1 September 2026, starting from its own view of £850 per calendar month for the property modernised and in good order, then deducting £125 for its dated, poor-condition kitchen, bathroom and electric storage heating. The tribunal relied on its own knowledge of local rents because neither party's comparables were proper, and it refused the tenant's request for a later start on hardship grounds because no evidence was provided.

The panel relied mainly on its own knowledge of local rents.
