In short
The landlord asked for a rent of £1700 a month, up from £1200 a month, for a two-bedroom flat in TW14. The tribunal determined a market rent of £1700 a month, starting 7 January 2026, relying mainly on the landlord's comparables at the same building and its own knowledge of the area. It was not persuaded that the increase would cause the tenant undue hardship, so it did not delay the start date.
What decided it:Comparables rejectedHardship
Both sides gave the tribunal comparable lettings.
