BackdatedThe new rent took effect from 8 June 2025, before the decision was made. Backdating was allowed under the pre-Act rules.

In short

The landlord asked to increase the rent for a two-bedroom flat in SL1 from £1,600 a month to £2,200 a month. The tribunal determined a market rent of £1,600 a month, effective from 7 July 2025. It gave little weight to the landlord's comparable rents, as it had no information on whether they were open-market lettings, and it reflected the property's need for work since the tenancy began in 2017.
