Struck outPre-Act rulesDecided 5 June 2026Case MAN/00BY/MNR/2026/0127

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, Torus Liverpool, served a notice proposing a rent of £838.40 a month in place of the existing £800.00 a month for a property in L5. The tenant referred the notice to the tribunal, which decided it had no jurisdiction to determine the market rent. The tribunal gave the reason that the landlord had used the wrong form and the increase fell within the fixed term of the tenancy, which contains a rent review clause.

Neither side gave the tribunal comparable lettings.
