In short
The landlord, a housing association, proposed a rent of £143.38 a week in place of the existing £136.82 a week for a semi-detached house in W11 let unfurnished. The tribunal determined a market rent of £330 a week from 6 April 2026, relying on its own expert knowledge of rents in the area because neither party supplied comparable evidence. The tribunal noted that the landlord is entitled but not required to charge the determined figure and may choose a lower one.
The panel relied mainly on its own knowledge of local rents.
