In short
The landlord's notice proposed a rent of £521.00 per week, up from £368.00 per week, for a three-bedroom house in W4. The tribunal determined the market rent at £521.00 per week, with the new rent taking effect from the date of the decision, 24 July 2026, rather than 8 June 2026, because of hardship to the tenant. The tribunal started from modernised comparable lettings and made deductions for the dated kitchen and bathroom, the absence of gas central heating and white goods, and the tenant's responsibility for internal decoration.
