In short
The landlord proposed a rent of £2250 a month, up from the existing £1900 a month, for a two-bedroom flat in NW10. The tribunal determined a rent of £2000 a month, starting from 12 March 2026. It valued the flat at £2100 a month using the landlord's comparable lettings and its own knowledge of the market, then deducted £100 a month because of a persistent mould problem.
What decided it:Property condition
Only the landlord gave the tribunal comparable lettings.
