BackdatedThe new rent took effect from 27 May 2026, before the decision was made. Backdating was allowed under the pre-Act rules.

In short

The landlord proposed raising the rent of a three-bedroom house in HA8 from £2100 a month to £2750 a month. The tribunal determined a new rent of £2300 a month from 27 May 2026, starting from a market rent of £2500 a month for the property in good order and deducting £200 a month for its condition. The deduction reflected an unmodernised kitchen, worn carpets, damp and mould, and the landlord's storage in part of the garage and loft.
