In short
The landlord proposed a rent of £895 per calendar month, up from £850 pcm, for a three-bedroom house in NE32. The tribunal found an open-market rent of £900 pcm, which is higher than the landlord's proposal, so it determined the new rent at £895 per calendar month, effective from 9 August 2026. It gave most weight to the comparable in the closest locality and limited weight to comparables in distinctly different local market areas.
