In short
The landlord proposed raising the rent of a one-bedroom unfurnished flat in MK12 from £1,000 a month to £1,196 a month. The tribunal determined a new rent of £1,150 a month, effective from 23 September 2026. It gave little weight to central Milton Keynes comparables as a different rental market and set the rent below the landlord's figure because of the property's older condition and lack of features such as controlled access and balconies found in the better comparables.
