303 Ruby Court, 3-5 Knightland Road, London E5 9HR
Struck outPre-Act rulesDecided 29 July 2026Case LON/00AM/MNR/2026/0454
No rent was set
The application was struck out, so the tribunal did not set a rent. This most often happens when the landlord's notice was invalid or the tribunal had no jurisdiction.
In short
The landlord served a notice proposing to raise the rent of a flat in E5 from £2,000.00 per month to £3,000.00 per month. The tribunal struck out the application because it has no jurisdiction to set a market rent under sections 13 and 14 of the Housing Act 1988: it found the tenant no longer occupies the property as their only or principal home and has sublet it, so the agreement is not an assured periodic tenancy.
Neither side gave the tribunal comparable lettings.
