In short

The landlord proposed a rent of £1,150 a month, up from £900 a month, from 1 August 2025. The tribunal determined a rent of £975 a month, effective from 1 August 2025, for a property in the TR7 postcode district. It reached this figure from an open market rent of £1,200 a month for the property in good condition, less deductions totalling £225 a month for lack of modern white goods, dated kitchen and bathroom fittings, and general wants of repair including damp and mould growth.
