In short
The landlord, EMH Housing and Regeneration Limited, proposed a rent of £105.57 a week (including £17.22 service charge) in place of the existing £98.02 a week for a one-bedroom flat in LE5. The tribunal determined £103.32 a week including £14.97 a week for services, taking effect from 7 April 2025. It based this on the Government formula for rent levels and the landlord's revised, reduced service charge, with service charge arrears being written off.
