In short
The landlord proposed a rent of £1,800 a month for a two-bedroom flat in E11, up from £1,550 a month. The tribunal determined a market rent of £1,650 a month from 10 March 2026, relying on the landlord's comparables and its own general knowledge of local rents. The tribunal found no evidence of undue hardship, so the start date was not deferred.
Both sides gave the tribunal comparable lettings.
