In short
The landlord, G8 Properties Limited, proposed a rent of £1,850 a month for a two-bedroom house in IG1, up from £1,530 a month. The tribunal determined a rent of £1,615 a month, effective from 18 February 2025, after starting from an open market rent in good condition in the region of £1,900 a month and deducting 10% for condition and 5% for no white goods and no carpets or curtains. The tribunal also found that the landlord's proposed start date would cause the tenants undue hardship, so the new rent starts from the date of the decision.
