BackdatedThe new rent took effect from 24 March 2026, before the decision was made. Backdating was allowed under the pre-Act rules.

In short

The landlord proposed raising the rent of a one-bedroom flat in E15 from £1233.33 a month to £1500 a month. The tribunal determined a rent of £1425 a month, starting 24 March 2026, after finding the flat would let for £1500 a month fully fitted and in good order, using both sides' comparables and its own knowledge. It deducted £75 a month because the flat had only partial white goods and some disrepair in the communal areas.
