Struck outPre-Act rulesDecided 22 July 2026Case HAV/21UH/MNR/2026/0171
No rent was set
The application was struck out, so the tribunal did not set a rent. This most often happens when the landlord's notice was invalid or the tribunal had no jurisdiction.
In short
The landlord asked for a rent of £1,500 per calendar month, up from £850 per calendar month, for a three-bedroom semi-detached house in RH19. The tribunal struck out the application because the landlord's notice was invalid: the proposed start date of 1 June 2026 did not fall at the beginning of a tenancy period, so the tribunal had no jurisdiction to set a market rent.
