In short
The landlord asked for a rent of £1,615.00 a month for a property in M30, up from £1,295.00 a month. The tribunal determined a market rent of £1,615.00 a month from 3 October 2026, relying on achieved rents from comparable properties on the same estate in preference to advertised rents, and found insufficient evidence of undue hardship to delay the start date. The landlord conceded £125.00 a month, so the tenant will pay £1,490.00 a month until a valid future increase.
